Breaking News: Explosive Device Detonated in Exeter

[ToxicPaddy]

Sounds like the kind of thing the IRA would do, but haven't those days passed. At least no one seems to have died. Quite a random target.

Call CTU...

The IRA are still somewhat active in Northern Ireland, but I don't think they would get England in this day and age.

Still quite scary though, I mean, London Underground is probably going to be next hit now there should be more security there now.

Ryan, was it a terrorist attack for sure? So close to where we live too.

[Pyroka]

I'm certain of it being a terrorist attack, they won't release the identity imo but defo something to do with terrorism. It wasn't someones iPod malfunctioning, thats for sure. God, I was just walking out of Newton Abbot when the bomb went off lol, thank god I got that train.

[Pyroka]

I guess if the bomber failed and tried to bomb Nandos, he was chicken! LOL!

Eating at giraffe does cost a bomb though... hehe. Oh dearrrrrr. There wern't any other explosions kk?

I think the nails wern't properly placed, I'm not a bomb technician! One minute, phones going off. Right that was my mate in Exeter, it seems that there are a few more bombers and one of them has been caught by the police. Most of the coppers have machine guns there and seriously, it's high alert there. The train stations are on high alert too, it's all pretty on edge there.

eek, seriously eek.

Of course ARV are going to be there.. there has been an explosion of some sort, they aint going to send bobbys their to patrol it lol, if what you say and theirs a possible threat of terrorism, then yeah the whole place will be on high alert.

Looks quite shocking, but makes me think, why Exeter, it aint looked at much and terrorists attack large places, with a lot of the public their for extreme effect usually?

Guess we'll have to wait for the Police to release another press statement.

Aslong as there around it they will move if it goes off
and LOL machine guns
You mean little 9mm MP5's.

They're not so little.

The closest thing the police have to machine guns are MP5's.
Some airports use P90's but majority are MP5's.
Can you show me a pic of the police's machine guns?
Or get your dad to ring me with the name of them?

UK Soldiers / SO19 / SAS don't use P90s, they pretty much always use:
G36C, MP5, (SA)LA80

Yeah that's the one I was talking about! I'd class that as a machine gun for it's structure, apologies lol. Bomb squad are there ano that.

MP5 Is an SMG.
