Police investigators in Nashville used DNA to link the man to remains found near the exploded motor home.

The FBI also says the car was registered to the man, whom they name Anthony Quinn Warner. It was with the help of the car’s registration that they first followed the 63-year-old’s trail.

Authorities do not know what Warner’s motive may have been, but there is no indication that anyone other than Warner himself was involved.

It was early Christmas morning when the RV aired in downtown Nashville, Tennessee, after a pre-recorded recording of the car alerted bystanders that they were using a speaker system to escape.

After a quarter of an hour of replay of the recording, the alerts stopped and the facility switched to replay Petula Clark’s 1964 hit Downtown. Soon after, the car exploded.

Three people were injured, but not seriously. That it did not get worse was because five policemen arrived at the scene and evacuated people from nearby houses.

But there was significant damage to cars, house fronts and built especially for the AT&T telecommunications company, in front of which the car was parked.

Until he retired a month ago, Warner had worked as an IT expert for a real estate agent in the city.

A large amount of equipment in the AT&T building was destroyed in the blast, causing problems with cell phones and phone lines for police and hospitals in both Tennessee and several neighboring states.

Police already determined Friday that the explosion was not an accident, but a deliberate act.

The day after the blast, investigators found parts of the car with the registration number linking him to Warner, then searched his home near Nashville.

A Google Maps image from 2019 shows a motorhome parked on the property that was the same type as the one that went on the air, but was not there on Saturday.
