The FBI has concluded its investigation into the car explosion at the Rainbow Bridge border crossing in Niagara Falls and has found no evidence of terrorism. The incident occurred when a vehicle raced through an intersection, hit a median, and exploded after crashing into a line of booths. The FBI's search of the scene revealed no explosive materials, and they did not identify any terrorism connection. Local police are now handling the case as a traffic investigation. The two individuals who died in the crash were a husband and wife, but their identities have not been released. While the FBI has handed over the case to the Niagara Falls Police Department, the investigation is expected to take some time to complete due to its complexity. The incident prompted the closure of four bridges connecting western New York and Ontario, causing disruptions in travel between the two countries.
There is still mystery surrounding the cause of the explosion, as investigators are exploring the possibility of a mechanical failure in the car. The New York couple driving the Bentley that crashed into the border crossing may have experienced a sudden acceleration due to a mechanical glitch. However, Bentley Motors has not yet been contacted by investigators regarding the incident. The investigation is ongoing, but it seems reassuring that there is no indication of terrorism.
