May 02, 2010 — New York's iconic Times Square was shut down and evacuated on Saturday night after police spotted smoke emanating from a suspicious parked car.
According to officials, a bomb made up of propane tanks, fireworks, petrol containers, wires and two clocks, was found planted in the rear of the vehicle.
