"Suicide (Homicide) Bombers" 

Exactly when a suicide bombing will take place on American soil is unknown.  Intelligence and surveillance are vital for police to safely apprehend suicide bombers and prevent detonation.  No suicide bomber profile exists; however, there is a behavioral profile that may be used to assist police and other emergency responders in recognizing them.  We will look at the advantages of suicide bombers, pre-incident indicators, and suicide bombing incident response on this edition of "Live Response."
