Cartoonifada In Times Square?

From the Telegraph:
Police in New York are investigating whether a car bomb in Times Square was targeted at the makers of South Park over a controversial depiction of the Prophet Mohammed.

Trying to make sense of NYPD's "suspect" video. FOX says he was videotaped getting out of the car -- but that is NOT shown, we just see him walking into Shubert Alley and taking off his top shirt. He is coming from and heading in right direction, but he looks neither hurried nor "furtive" to me. His last glance-back was at a couple of girls standing by nearby cars. And if he didn't want to be noticed, why change from a dark shirt to a red one no more than 15 or 20 feet from the car and essentially right in the middle of the street?

Could just as easily be someone who took his top shirt off because it was too warm out -- and who is now scared shitless if he's seen the video and hoping nobody ID's him.

Apparently there is a second video of somebody running up Broadway, which could be something, but haven't seen it yet.

I've got a bad feeling about this one and can't really say why...

I agree, RRA. That video does not look like a guy in a hurry, or like a guy who is trying to be anonymous. He looks tremendously relaxed, you know, like a guy who's taking off his sweater.
