Nashville mayor believes 'bomber' was 'targeting the AT&T building' in suicide attack amid reports he was paranoid that 5G is 'spying on Americans'

 UK Daily Mail  "Speculation is growing that the AT&T building was intentionally targeted in the Nashville Christmas Day bombing as the FBI probes rumors that the main suspect in the attack harbored deep paranoia about 5G technology.  

"Anthony Quinn Warner, 63, was named in local media as the FBI's sole person of interest hours after an RV exploded outside Nashville's AT&T building on Friday morning, leaving three people injured and multiple structures damaged.  

"The explosion is thought to have been the result of a suicide bombing after it was revealed that human remains had been recovered at the scene and officials said they were not looking for another suspect." . . .

What we know about Anthony Quinn Warner 

Anthony Quinn Warner, 63, was named by local media as the person of interest in the Nashville Christmas Day bombing. Unmarried and childless, Warner is listed as a Nashville resident who lived in the suburb Antioch.

A property linked to him since the 1980s was raided on Bakertown Road, Antioch on Saturday afternoon. This house was transferred for free to 29-year-old Michelle Swing on November 25 but she claims she was unaware of the exchange. 

Warner had also transferred a $249,000 house on the same road to Swing for free in January 2019.  

That house previously belonged to Warner's father Charles, who died in 2011. It was transferred to Warner's brother Steve before being passed to Warner in October 2018, a month prior to Steve's death.  

Warner's mother Chris is still alive and he has a sister Teresa. 

The Daily Beast reported Warner was arrested in 1978 and convicted of an unspecified felony charge in 1980.

Neighbors described Warner as an 'oddball' who was seen tinkering with antenna on his roof and placed 'No Trepassing' signs around his house.

FBI agents are said to be investigating tips that Warner was paranoid about spying on Americans through 5G. 

He used the Bakertown Road address as the location of his business, Custom Alarms Electronics, which specialized in burglar alarms. The license for the business expired in 1998.  Warner then became a self-employed IT worker and carried out subcontract work for a local real-estate agent who spoke to FBI agents on Saturday. 

Six officers with the Metro Nashville Police Department are being recognized for their role in helping downtown residents evacuate before an RV exploded Friday morning on 2nd Avenue.  . . . "  'Those officers didn't care about themselves, they cared about the citizens of Nashville," said Police Chief John Drake. "The officers saved lives today and that heroism should be noted."

"Those who were recognized are:

  • Officer Brenna Hosey, who has been with the department for 4 years;
  • Officer James Luellen, who has been with the department for 3 years;
  • Officer Michael Sipos, who has been with the department for 16-months;
  • Officer Amanda Topping, who has been with the department for 21 months;
  • Officer James Wells, who has been with the department for 21-months; and
  • Sergeant Timothy Miller, who has been with the department for 11 years.
