The two people who attacked a kosher market in Jersey City, New Jersey, had a bomb in their U-Haul van so powerful that it could have killed or injured people up to 500 yards away.

FBI special agent in charge Greg Ehrie said at a Monday press conference that the bomb discovered inside the vehicle would have resulted in a large explosion. He also said that the duo had enough bomb construction materials to have built a second explosive device, according to NJ.com.

The article goes on to state the following:

The gunmen, 47-year-old David Anderson and 50-year-old Francine Graham, were killed during a shootout with law enforcement on Dec. 10. The violence that day began when the two fatally shot Jersey City Police Department Detective Joseph Seals, 40, in the head. From there, the pair headed to a nearby kosher market and killed three civilians.

Authorities say the two planned for more bloodshed, intending to spread fear in the Jewish community.

“We know now that they planned greater acts of mayhem on both communities,” U.S. Attorney Craig Carpenito said.

He called the attack “profoundly un-American” and an “evil and cowardly act.”
