FBI warns police depts after NYC terror raid

[Canuckistan]

Counterterrorism officials are warning police departments around the country to be on the lookout for evidence of homemade bombs following raids on several New York City apartments in a hunt for explosives and possible links to al-Qaida operatives.

Investigators issued warrants to search the residences early Monday for explosives material but did not find any, according to a person briefed on the matter who was not authorized to discuss the case and requested anonymity.

Is this the first "terror alert" we've seen this year?

I hope they find what they're looking for.
