Nashville bomber left hints of trouble, but motive remains elusive

Warner, the man accused of exploding a bomb in Nashville, Tenn., on Christmas Day, told a neighbor days earlier that Nashville and the world is never going to forget me. A month before the bombing, he signed a document that transferred his longtime home in a Nashville suburb to a California woman for nothing in return. While investigators tried to piece together a possible motive for the attack, a neighbor recalled a recent conversation with Warner that seemed ominous only in hindsight.

Motive "may never" be known after Nashville bomber killed in blast, official says

While officials on Sunday named Anthony Quinn Warner, 63, as the man behind the mysterious explosion in which he was killed, the motive has remained elusive. Yet thus far, officials have not provided information on what possibly drove Warner to set off the explosion. CBS affiliate WTVF reports that Warner's criminal history was short: one marijuana arrest in 1978 by Nashville police. Then, for reasons that may never be known, the audio switched to a recording of Petula Clark's 1964 hit "Downtown" shortly before the blast.
