After the fire was extinguished, investigators found at least a dozen gasoline canisters scattered across the pavement and inside the Expedition, according to Smith.
Gasoline canisters are not explosives.
He drove a car towards a crowd but a fucking uber popped out and he crashed into it. BOth people in the uber died.
Urnalist idiocy aside, the article strongly suggests the guy wanted to kill himself and others along the way.
Avery, from Syracuse, had rented a hotel room in Rochester, where police conducted a search and recovered a suicide note and journal, according to law enforcement sources.
Investigators are reviewing the journal for any clues into the attack and have interviewed family members who said they believed the suspect had bipolar depression, though he was never officially diagnosed, the sources said.
Authorities are planning to conduct a search of a storage unit belonging to Avery in north Syracuse as well.
The homicidal driver rented the extra-large SUV before heading to the concert venue, law enforcement sources told ABC News.
For all we know, the dude himself might have thought the canisters would add to the fire. Terrorism might be a reach, but certainly worth investigating.
That's what he was thinking, yeah. Dude wanted to crash into a crowd, I'm sure he bought the gas to donate to a local church and just forgot about it.
I guess he could've had a medical emergency that caused him to speed toward a bunch of people on a crosswalk, but the writings in his hotel room probably remove that doubt.
I'm assuming the guy's just retarded, and thought "gas gas make big boom" so just stuffed some gas canisters in the car and left it at that.
But shove a nozzle on them and some high powered pumps they could be a viable thermobaric bomb. Theoretically if you could pump out a high enough concentration as you speed past it could create a long, narrow detonation that would be terrifying on long, narrow crowds.

Saved you the click.

And it wasn't even a crowd, it was people crossing a crosswalk.
I would like to see what they are calling a "gasoline canister" before I form an opinion.
