New York police: No evidence of Taliban link to failed bomb

New York: The police commissioner says there was no evidence of a Taliban link to a failed bomb found in a smoking SUV parked in Times Square - a major tourist destination - and police were on their way to Pennsylvania to talk to a man who said he may have recorded a bombing suspect in a nearby alley.

The video apparently shows a white man in his 40s taking off his shirt in the alley and putting it in a bag, Commissioner Ray Kelly said.

Police found the SUV parked on one of the prime blocks for Broadway shows such as "The Lion King" after being alerted by two street vendors on Saturday night.

Thousands of tourists were cleared from the streets for 10 hours, and the bomb was dismantled. No one was injured.
