The second device was contained within a pressure cooker and had wires attached to a mobile phone. If confirmed that the second device is connected to the first bomb, it should provide valuable forensic evidence, as the device did not detonate and has now been removed for detailed analysis. As well as examining it for fingerprints and other DNA evidence, investigators might also be able to trace the pressure cooker back to the store it was bought from.
A second confirmed device, just a short distance from the first, would also point to a more co-ordinated style of attack and raise concerns that other devices might still be out there.
Police are examining CCTV and other footage from around the scene of the bomb blast. One particular sequence of video shows a person at the spot where the bomb detonated, just a short time before the explosion.

The device, found on West 27th Street, was inside a plastic bag. There was also a piece of paper with writing that was either found inside the bag or nearby.
The pressure cooker apparently resembled the devices that exploded in the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing..
