A package that exploded at a FedEx Ground distribution facility near San Antonio was addressed to a location in Austin — and came from that same city, officials say. It’s the fifth explosion of a device either in Austin or meant to be delivered there.

The package detonated Tuesday at around 12:25 a.m. local time at a facility in Schertz, Texas, northeast of San Antonio, the FBI says. “One person was treated and released at the scene,” the Schertz Police Department said.
