FULL TITLE: SWAT team descends on Austin bomber's home and speak to shirtless man just hours after the homeschooled Christian blew himself up during police chase, ending 19-day campaign of terror
The 23-year-old who blew himself up as police tried to arrest him over a string of deadly Austin bombings has been described as a quiet, home-schooled young man.
Mark Anthony Conditt killed himself when he detonated a bomb inside his SUV as police surrounded him near a hotel on Interstate 35, just outside Austin, at about 2am on Wednesday.
Police closed in on the bomber after obtaining CCTV footage of him posting two packages at a FedEx office that intended to target people of color on Sunday night.
Authorities are warning that more bombs could still be out there because they do not know if the bomber posted more devices prior to his death.
Police started evacuating the area near where Conditt lived at about 1pm on Wednesday, fearing there could explosives there. They have since questioned his two housemates about their knowledge of the bombings.
The bomber had gone on a three week bombing spree stretching back to March 2. The series of bombings killed two people and injured at least five others. The most recent package bomb detonated at a FedEx distribution center near San Antonio early Tuesday.
Police still do not know the motive behind the attacks or whether the bomber had an accomplice, but did say he wasn't previously known to law enforcement.
Police believe Conditt, who previously worked as a computer repair technician and at a manufacturing company, made all the bombs himself.

Doesn’t matter. It’s the Seriousness of the Charge.
Found the interview. http://www.kxan.com/news/local-news/police-question-bombers-two-roommates/1066572095
Four living in the house so where’s the third roommate? Cops have only mentioned two. The article is confusing. I can’t find the video of her but it sounded like there was another roommate. Maybe she’s just confusing so that’s the way the article was written.
Very true.
Sounds like one more reason to use public schools.
Also tells me he wasn’t waiting for the cops to show up
"We are devastated and broken at the news that our family member could be involved in such an awful way," the family said in a statement.
It continued, "We had no idea of the darkness that Mark must have been in. Our family is a normal family in every way. We love, and we pray and, we try to inspire and serve others. Right now our prayers are for those families who have lost loved ones, for those impacted in any way, and for the soul of our Mark. We are grieving, and we are in shock. Please respect our privacy as we deal with this terrible, terrible knowledge and try to support each other at this time.”
Glad you pointed that out. Muslim blowing himself up = lone wolf. With this guy, the media already condemned every Christian white male in America and probably in the universe and Jesus too.
Not homeschooled at age 23.
Where did you get that from? I read your article and never saw any mention of the mysterious "Shirtless Man"........did he have one arm?
You know, in those old moves by the LaLonde brothers, most of which were just bad - they would mention the Tribulation Christians being arrested by the NWO forces calling them “haters”.
I believe that part they got correct. That’s pretty much how it will be and already is for some of the liberals at Yahoo (no doubt at HuffPo and DU, too).
Ah Ha!
But then again, you can’t use logic on them. They only scream over you and believe yelling, attacking, and fast talk makes them right.
For the really fast talkers just ask them to repeat that so you can get a little more of the message. IF they repeat. Ask them to do it again ... they usually cuss you and storm off. Gods forgive me for enjoying that so much when I do it to the little pricks.
Did you see that farce of a presser just now? Began about 6:15. All the who's who were taking turns getting their face time. Rivaled Obama for all the ME! ME! ME! It was awful how they were patting themselves on the backs. They'd still be clueless today if he hadn't all but danced a jig and waved at the FedEx cameras. The only new thing was APD chief said he'd left a video confession make right before the bitter end. Austin CBS saying it's possible the roommates didn't know he was making bombs. Well, that's their story and their sticking to it. Earlier today, the NAACP prez who started the whole thing about blacks being targeted victims made a comment he knew the bomber would be a white guy.
Yes, 24, but everyone knows that homeschooled Christians are a national security risk. Scratch that, they are independent and more likely to question the deep state, so yeah, to the deep state, we are the enemy
To be honest, the whole narrative raises eyebrows now. Then again, which official narrative does not these days?
Disgusting, that a presser like this, would EVER take place, in TX.
I thought the same thing, when I watched the FL presser.
Travis and Broward County are LOST!
Their next target.
Stopped reading right there. Way to go, Guardian.
Indeed. What they do not tell you,
Tim Lambert, president of the Texas Home School Coalition, said i..."Raised by both parents in a Christian home, Conditt reportedly walked away from his faith several years ago ," he said. "Today’s revelations about the Austin bombings provide a stark reminder that we live in a fallen world. Unfortunately, no form of education, public or private, can ensure a tragedy like this will never happen." - https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2018/03/21/who-mark-anthony-conditt-austin-serial-bomber/444738002/
