What I'm told from sources who are briefed on the case is that looking into the back of this vehicle, they saw what appears to be explosives. It was described as a number of what they described as mortars. So, when you think about what are those, those could be rockets that are launched in the military sense, or they could be based on that appearance the kind of mortars that launch fireworks.

The court heard that police evidence included a video recording in which four masked individuals took responsibility for an attack on a mosque in Galway and threatened future attacks against migrant accommodation in Ireland. After clearing the court to view the video, Judge Cody said it showed men with balaclavas standing in front of a tricolour and making what he described as a practice statement after a terror attack.

Police said they shot and killed the suspect after at least four people died in the attack on the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints chapel. Eight people were also injured after a gunman in a pickup truck smashed through the doors of the church during a service in the Grand Blanc Township and set the building on fire. The bodies of two of the victims were found as authorities searched the debris in the church, Police Chief William Renye said.

One of the devices found on the rooftops contained about 30 grams of explosive powder - roughly 600 times the legal limit for consumer fireworks, according to court documents.
