A new video of the Christmas morning blast in the US city of Nashville has emerged on the Internet.
The footage shows what looks like a police officer walking down the street against the background of a parked RV and a police car.

The video comes after local police said that an explosion took place on Friday morning in the city centre in a van parked on the side of the road. At least three people were injured and 20 building were damaged as a result of the blast.
Before the vehicle exploded, a pre-recorded warning urged people in the area to evacuate.
The FBI is investigating the explosion, which could possibly have been a suicide bombing, CNN cited unnamed sources as saying.
