FBI: evidence response teams spent 5-6 hours going over extensive debris.

FBI: still too early to tell the motive. Could be a disgruntled employee or an act of terrorism.

"When agents searched Roden's south Tulsa apartment, they claim they found dozens of items associated with explosives production, as well as a book and hand written notes on the practice.

More pipe bombs were found in a bag, along with an application for a German National visa, a loaded hand gun and an AR-15."

Much more at link. Also materials to make explosives found at his mother's home in Sand Springs, where Roden was frequently seen. Glad this dude is off the streets.

This guy is so dangerous, what with all his bomb-making plans and activities. Wonder what his long-term goal was?
