Pakistan native admits to Times Square bomb plot

NEW YORK— Seized from a plane about to fly to the Middle East, a Pakistan-born man admitted training to make bombs at a terrorism camp in his native land before he rigged a sport utility vehicle with a homemade device to explode in Times Square, authorities said Tuesday.
Faisal Shahzad, a naturalized US citizen who recently spent five months in Pakistan, was arrested on terrorism and weapons of mass destruction charges for trying to blow up the crude gasoline-and-propane bomb amid tourists and theatergoers Saturday evening.
