#2 Word count in the hundreds. Dozens of photographs. Not ONE WORD regarding the identity or description of the victim or "men" arrested.

Perhaps I missed something.

#3 One thing we can surmise,
the bomber died horribly.

#4 Got mangled anyway. A strong enough concussion from the blast would probably ensure the bomber was insensate. Still, it's nice to imagine a happy ending for everyone but the bomber.

#5 To summarize both articles, including updates:

when the bomber first got into the taxi, he asked to go to the cathedral where the Remembrance ceremony was scheduled, then to the city center, then to stop outside the maternity hospital as they passed it

a fourth man was taken into custody previously — which sounds like they figured out he was connected after they’d picked him up for something unrelated, like harassing girls

the suicide bomber is not known to MI-5 but has been identified by the police

significant items have been found at one of the addresses raided following the bomb, one of which the jacket wallah may have lived at

the police currently think that the bomb detonators went off, but the bomb itself fizzled

the residents around the two raided addresses were cleared out last night with only five minutes warning

#6 Another "anti-vaxxer right wing white supremacist", I'm guessing.

#9 "the police currently think that the bomb detonators went off, but the bomb itself fizzled."
That had to smart. I've seen that happen.

#10 If it weren't for the diversity, the cabbie would not have found the strength to lock the bomber in the vehicle.
