/0 Comments/in , /by

An explosion that left behind a crater on the shores of Long Island has sparked concerns of potential terrorism, Fox News reported.

The four-foot wide, two-foot deep crater was allegedly created by an illegal explosion on the north side of Fox Island, detonated by an unspecified device, CBS 2 reported.

“Obviously our department is concerned as to why someone would detonate a device of this size and magnitude on an uninhabited island,” Suffolk County police acting commissioner Stuart Cameron told reporters on Monday, Fox News reported. He said a 23-foot-long boat with stripes was seen fleeing the area around the time of the explosion.

“We do know that when people produce homemade explosives, very often they want to test those explosives to make sure they function as intended,” Cameron said. “That is one of our concerns, and that is why we want to determine what transpired yesterday morning.”
