Christmas Morning Blast in Tennessee
US officials have not confirmed their reported concerns over possible copycat attacks in the wake of the Nashville bombing, but have released a statement claiming they expect no further explosions linked to the one that rocked the Tennessee capital early on Christmas morning.
On 25 December, a bomb-laden RV belonging to 63-year-old Anthony Warner, who lived in Nashville’s suburbs, exploded damaging nearly 40 nearby buildings, including the AT&T Building, disrupting its telecommunication services. The RV broadcasted a warning prior to the explosion urging residents to evacuate – police officers therefore had time to evacuate people and prevent any fatalities. Four people were injured by the blast.

After it was made public that Anthony Warner, who died in the explosion, was responsible, reports emerged that he believed in aliens and supported 5G conspiracy theories. However, US authorities refuse to name a motive.
5G conspiracy theories spiked in the middle of the pandemic and some even claim that 5G towers spread COVID-19, despite no evidence. Such theories are thought to have fuelled scores of attacks on telecommunication equipment across the UK and the Netherlands.
