Investigators believe the Islamist extremist cell which carried out the vehicle rampages in Barcelona and the coastal resort of Cambrils may have accidentally blown up the property while preparing explosives a day earlier.
Traces of the explosive TATP, which was used by Islamic State in atrocities in Paris and Brussels, were also found.

We can be thankful for this.
Actually I think I read somewhere that that is a common outcome when people build bombs.
They make mistakes and become the bombs one and only victim.

One wonders what it will take for Europe to wake up to the fact that they let hundreds if not thousands of radical jihadis Into their countries and even have given them citizenship. Jihadis that spit and defecate on all the values you hold dear. The political leadership that does this doesn't get punished at all. Where's the piano wire when you really need it?
