FBI Seeking to Locate Two Individuals Who Found Chelsea Bomb, Stole Luggage

Authorities said they still are unsure whether Rahami had help.

Local authorities and federal agents are interested in speaking with the unknown men after surveillance footage captured them sifting through luggage left on the sidewalk, removing the pressure-cooker bomb, and walking away from the scene with the luggage.

The wife, thought to be a Pakistani national, left the US for Pakistan in June, according to investigators.

Preet Bharara, the chief federal prosecutor in Manhattan, said Wednesday that while terror charges were filed in both NY and New Jersey, the first case would proceed against Rahami in NY.

Rahami, 28, was arrested on Monday following a shootout with police in Linden, New Jersey.

Waters said the men who removed the bomb from the bag were "very lucky" they weren't hurt. Police also say they have not yet been able to interview Rahami. One of the bombs in New Jersey exploded but didn't kill or injure anyone, and the rest failed to detonate before police recovered them.

While one bomb exploded in Chelsea, another pressure cooker bomb in Manhattan did not explode.

Federal prosecutors charge Afghan-born Ahmad Khan Rahami over bombings in ny and New Jersey.

The entries concluded on an ominous note: "Inshallah (god willing) the sounds of the bombs will be heard on the streets". He has been charged with wounding 31 people in a bombing in NY on Saturday that authorities regard as an act of terror. He has been unconscious and intubated for much of the time since undergoing surgery, U.S. Attorney Paul Fishman said in a court filing.

Bombs Rahami allegedly planted across NY and New Jersey injured 31 people.

Then an hour later, a photographer spotted the bomb - which she initially mistook for an abandoned science experiment, she said.

Rahami was born in Afghanistan, came to the U.S.at age 7 and became a naturalized American citizen. Rahami allegedly praised the Muslim soldier who killed 13 people during a shooting spree at a military base in Fort Hood, Texas and "Brother Osama Bin Laden". They say he wrote a journal that praised Osama bin Laden and other Muslim extremists, fumed about what he saw as the USA government's killing of Muslim holy warriors and declared "death to your oppression".

"I called the Federal Bureau of Investigation two years ago", the father told reporters at the family's restaurant in Elizabeth, New Jersey.
