To clarify, you said the person who died in this explosion is Mr. Barkas.
00:05
Is Mr. Barkas who you believe made this bomb and detonated it?
00:10
Yeah, so that's nuanced there.
00:11
So we are fairly confident that Mr. Barkas is our primary suspect person of interest.
00:19
We are working through some other technical means to positively identify the decedent here.
00:25
But we believe, at this moment, based on the evidence that we've gathered, that that is Mr. Barkas as the decedent here.
00:32
Has Barkas with his mother and family cooperated with his body?
00:35
I'm not going to... No comment there.
00:37
This is Director of CBS News.
00:39
This Ford Fusion, 3,000 pounds, essentially creates this 250-yard blast site.
00:45
Talk about the device that was inside this vehicle.
00:49
Rudimentary, sophisticated, and walks through it.
00:51
And so there's a lot there that's still under investigation.
00:55
What I can say is this is probably the largest bombing scene that we've had in Southern California.
01:00
This does eclipse the bombing matter in the Liso Viejo.
01:03
It's that big.
01:05
And just for reference, to throw pieces of vehicle hundreds of feet in the air and then several blocks away,
01:12
you can use your imagine to imagine how big that bomb device was.
01:16
Was this individual able to buy the products online?
01:20
Was he...
01:21
Did he have to use a special license, military grade?
01:24
How did he obtain the materials for the device?
01:27
And so that information is still part of our investigation in order to protect the integrity of it.
01:31
I'm not going to comment on the how and the why yet.
