Before the blast in Arlington, Virginia, police said someone from inside the house had fired shots as officers tried to enter.
Police said earlier they had responded to reports of someone firing a flare gun from a residence on Monday night.
Officers on the scene reported only minor injuries.
But it is not clear if the suspect was injured or apprehended.
Some residents in the surrounding area said on social media they felt their homes shake.
I’m impressed. Was expecting it to be sensationalized title.
That whole house is ready to be scooped into a dumpster.
From the headline I expected the guy had it rigged, this certainly confirms it. I expected more out than up though it’s hard to see.
From what he posted on LinkedIn I doubt he’d have the expertise to rig anything.
More likely he punctured his gas main.
The housing market is exploding!
this is fucking nuts, i lived not far from that area for years and went to that mcdonald’s a block or two away a few times. details are scarce, but here’s the local news article
“I think it blew up the entire duplex,” one neighbor told ARLnow in the immediate aftermath. “I’m sure the family next door was evacuated before it blew up but they lost their home.”
A man named James Yoo, listed in public records as the resident of the address to which police were initially dispatched, has been repeatedly posting paranoid screeds on his Linkedin account. One post from three days ago rants against his neighbors in the adjoining duplex unit.

This is how the ‘Ruling Class’ stays anonymous using buffers and handlers to absorb ‘digital ID’.
So for every citizen they have multiple people assigned to spy on them?
Exponentially this idea just can’t work.
What kind of explosion was that? Someone blowing themselves up with explosives on purpose, or explosive fumes/gases from a drug lab or something igniting?
Any idea what they were looking for with that search warrant?
Here’s a nitter:

holy shit
edit: suddenly that link doesn’t work for me, here’s the original if anyone needs it
I don’t doubt it, it worked the first time for me, but for whatever reason when I went back a second time and tapped on the video for it to run, instead it would send me to the news account that asked if they could use it for broadcast. Tried multiple times, and I was definitely tapping on the video and not anywhere else. Just really strange. Has to be a glitch.
