"The footage was edited to remove about six minutes from when the apparent bomb was planted at 2:25 am to when it exploded at 2:31 am.," TPR wrote on Facebook.
No injuries or TPR damage have been reported. Agencies including the FBI, San Antonio Police Department and San Antonio Fire Department are investigating the incident. SAFD spokesperson Joe Arrington says it's being treated as criminal mischief.
