On Christmas morning, December 25, a mobile home exploded in the center of Nashville, the capital of the American state of Tennessee. One person was killed in the explosion - 63-year-old trailer owner Anthony Quinn Warner, who believed in the "danger of 5G".

Foreign mass media are writing about it.

At 6:30 a.m. on December 25, a mobile home exploded in downtown Nashville. Before the explosion, a "computerized" female voice sounded loudly from it. He warned that the car would explode in 15 minutes and began to count down to the explosion. "If you hear this message, evacuate immediately," the voice urged.

At the same time, as reported by The New York Times, the song "Downtown" by the British singer Petula Clark was heard from the speakers of the car trailer. The composition, which was released in 1964, begins with the words "when you are alone and life makes you feel lonely, go to the city center." There, it is said further, "the lights are much brighter" and you can forget "about problems and worries".

The street on which the explosion occurred is located in the center of Nashville, with many historic buildings in which cafes and bars operate. The trailer was parked near the data center of the American telecommunications company AT&T. The blast wave knocked out the windows of nearby houses, collapsed the facade of the building across the street from the AT&T office, destroyed three cars, and felled trees.

In addition, due to damage in the data center in some parts of Tennessee, as well as in the neighboring states of Alabama and Kentucky, cellular communication and the Internet temporarily stopped working. Because of this, according to the CTV channel, including the emergency numbers of the police and medical facilities, they were unavailable.

In addition to Warner, who blew himself up, three more people

were taken to the hospital with injuries; they are in stable condition. Most likely, there would have been more victims if there were no policemen on the scene. Officer James Llewellyn arrived on the street where the van was parked due to reports of shots fired. This information was not confirmed, but the policeman heard a warning about an explosion.

Llewellyn released reinforcements, and five more colleagues came to him. Together, they blocked the entrance to the quarter where the mobile home was parked, and began knocking on neighboring houses and asking people to move to a safe distance. Among those they took out of the house was a mother with four children.

The FBI believes that the explosion was arranged by Anthony Quinn Warner himself. It is assumed that he had no accomplices. Federal agents made this conclusion after watching many hours of surveillance footage: before the explosion, they saw no one on the street except Warner. The investigation considered the American's act a suicide, and not an attempt to commit mass murder, CNN sources said.

In early December, Warner informed him of his retirement. Warner also gave his ex-girlfriend his car and said he had cancer. In addition, according to the press, a month before his death, he transferred his house to Los Angeles resident Michelle Swing. How she is related to Warner is not reported.

Warner had never been caught by the police before. The reasons for his concession are still unknown. According to an Associated Press source, the investigation does not rule out that Warner's target was the building of the AT&T operator, near which he parked the motor home before the explosion. According to NBC and FOX television companies in Nashville, FBI agents asked Warner's neighbors if he was "paranoid" about 5G communication.
