Police checking surveillance cameras after car bomb fizzle in Times Square

Rick Moran in AT:  "The New York Times is reporting that police believe the bomb was a fizzle:

Inside, they discovered three canisters of propane like those used for barbecue grills, two five-gallon cans of gasoline, consumer-grade fireworks - the apparent source of the "pops" - and two clocks with batteries, the mayor said. He said the device "looked amateurish." Mr. Browne said: "It appeared it was in the process of detonating, but it malfunctioned."
