"The Department of Homeland Security is actively monitoring and participating in the investigations of the explosions in NY and New Jersey yesterday", Secretary Jeh Johnson said.

Authorities questioned several people early Monday after a auto stop in New York City as they worked to determine whether there was a connection between several explosive devices found in two states in two days.

Ryan McCann, of Elizabeth, said that he often ate at the restaurant and recently began seeingRahami working there more.

Also on Saturday, a man who authorities say referred to Allah wounded nine people in a stabbing rampage at a Minnesota mall before being shot to death by an off-duty police officer.

The shootout came after a weekend of fear and dread in NY and New Jersey.

Mayor Chris Bollwage said the Union County Bomb Squad determined it could be a bomb.

This follows the explosion of a pipe bomb on Saturday in the New Jersey town of Seaside Park, some 80 miles south of New York City. A second device that did not explode was also found in the area.

"In many of these cases we don't know until two, three or four days later whether or not there is a terrorist link", warned New York Congressman Peter King in a CBS television interview.
