| [PostMillennial] The unidentified ballot box bombing suspect in the Pacific Northwest could strike again, authorities warned. Portland Police Bureau spokesperson Mike Benner told news hounds during a Wednesday press brief: "Investigators believe it is very possible the suspect intends to continue these assassinations across the area." Benner described the alleged suspect as a thin-faced white male between the ages of 30 and 40 years old with balding or very short hair, a medium to thin build, and was wearing dark clothing. Could be an Antifa cadre… Detectives believe the suspect has "a wealth of experience in metal fabrication and welding." An interesting description. What could have triggered that? Benner told news hounds case Sherlocks would be conducting a second presser later in the evening to provide more detailed information on the alleged suspect.The briefing came in response to Monday's arson attacks, in which a suspect set fire by igniting incendiary devices to electoral ballot drop boxes in Portland, Oregon, and the neighboring city of Vancouver, Washington, just days before the highly anticipated US Presidential election. Nearly 500 ballots were burned at the Vancouver bombing site located at Fisher's Landing on 3510 SE 164th Ave, the Clark County Auditor's Office said. Only three ballots were lightly burned at the Portland bombing site, according to Multnomah County election officials, who credited the state's ballot boxes being equipped with dry chemical fire suppressant systems that activate in response to heat. "It worked exactly as it was supposed to," Oregon Elections Director Tim Scott said. "As soon as there was heat, it discharged the contents and immediately put out the flames." Washington state ballot boxes also are equipped with fire suppressant systems, but it had failed to go off, officials said.
