While investigators have been focused on Mr. Rahami’s actions immediately before and after the bombings, they were also working on Monday to trace his activities and travel in both recent months and years.</p></div><aside class="css-ew4tgv" aria-label="companion column"></aside></div><div></div><div class="css-s99gbd StoryBodyCompanionColumn"><div class="css-53u6y8"><p class="css-at9mc1 evys1bk0">One law enforcement official said that the bomb technicians involved in the investigation believed that Mr. Rahami constructed all the devices and that his handiwork raised the possibility that he had received training from someone with experience building improvised explosive devices.</p></div><aside class="css-ew4tgv" aria-label="companion column"></aside></div><div></div><div class="css-s99gbd StoryBodyCompanionColumn"><div class="css-53u6y8"><p class="css-at9mc1 evys1bk0">“If you’re working off the premise that the guy made all these devices,” the official said, “then the guy is a pretty good bombmaker. And you don’t get that good on the internet.”</p><p class="css-at9mc1 evys1bk0">It could not be determined on Monday whether Mr. Rahami had a lawyer, and his father did not respond to questions from reporters waiting outside the family’s apartment.</p><p class="css-at9mc1 evys1bk0">Mr. Rahami and his family had traveled periodically to Pakistan, and on one trip, he stayed for nearly a year.

Mayor Bill de Blasio was hesitant to call it an act of terrorism, and officials cautioned against linking the attack to the explosion in New Jersey.</p><p class="css-at9mc1 evys1bk0">The unexploded bomb found on West 27th Street, however, held critical clues.

One of the men opened the bag, pulled out the bomb, which was inside a white plastic bag, and then left with the luggage. The authorities, who are eager to talk to the men, said that their handling of the device may have disabled it.</p><p class="css-at9mc1 evys1bk0">By Sunday, the authorities were monitoring addresses associated with Mr. Rahami. Increasingly confident that he was involved with the bombings, they made the decision to act when they saw a vehicle leaving one of those addresses.</p><p class="css-at9mc1 evys1bk0">The car was pulled over on the Belt Parkway near the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge in Brooklyn. Five people inside, some of them Mr. Rahami’s relatives, were questioned and later released.</p><p class="css-at9mc1 evys1bk0">Later on Sunday night, the police received a report of a suspicious package near a train station in Elizabeth, N.J.</p></div><aside class="css-ew4tgv" aria-label="companion column"></aside></div><div><figure class="sizeMedium css-igpnju" aria-label="media" role="group" data-testid="VideoBlock"><div class="css-bsn42l"><span class="css-1dv1kvn">Video</span><div><div class="css-n27z15" style="padding-bottom:56.25%"><div class="css-mm3pwi"><div class="css-1g7y0i5 e1drnplw0"><button tabindex="100" class="css-1rtlxy" type="button" aria-label="close"><svg width="60" height="60" viewbox="0 0 60 60" fill="none"><circle cx="30" cy="30" r="30" fill="white" fill-opacity="0.9"/><path fill-rule="evenodd" clip-rule="evenodd" d="M38.4844 20.1006L39.8986 21.5148L21.5138 39.8996L20.0996 38.4854L38.4844 20.1006Z" fill="black"/><path fill-rule="evenodd" clip-rule="evenodd" d="M21.5156 20.1006L20.1014 21.5148L38.4862 39.8996L39.9004 38.4854L21.5156 20.1006Z" fill="black"/></svg></button><div class="css-rdbib0 e1drnplw1"></div><div class="css-18ow4sz e1drnplw2"><div aria-labelledby="modal-title" role="region"><header class="css-1bzlfz"><div class="css-mln36k" id="modal-title">transcript</div><button type="button" class="css-1igvuto"><div class="css-f40pzg"></div><span>Back</span></button><div class="css-f6lhej" data-testid="transcript-playback-controls"><div class="css-1ialerq"><button tabindex="99" type="button" class="css-1eut9gw" aria-label="play"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewbox="0 0 20 20" fill="none"><path fill-rule="evenodd" clip-rule="evenodd" d="M8 13.7683V6L14.5 9.88415L8 13.7683Z" fill="var(--color-content-secondary,#363636)"/><circle cx="10" cy="10" r="9.25" stroke="var(--color-stroke-primary,#121212)" stroke-width="1.5"/></svg></button><div class="css-1701swk"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewbox="0 0 40 36" id="el_0kpS9qL_S"><title>bars</title><g id="el_oZ84Hna1GC_65hRV2Qwn" class="css-1fxvzwo" data-animator-group="true" data-animator-type="0"><g id="el_oZ84Hna1GC_ILVvi2tqx" class="css-1wnday1" ata-animator-group="true" data-animator-type="2"><g id="el_oZ84Hna1GC"><rect x="34" width="6" height="36" id="el_qw_T_tngXw"/></g></g></g><g id="el_mYVjkduhMU_p_9Pm85Ac" class="css-fwki7z" data-animator-group="true" data-animator-type="0"><g id="el_mYVjkduhMU_WxG3R40yd" class="css-t3i5e6" data-animator-group="true" data-animator-type="2"><g id="el_mYVjkduhMU"><rect x="22.67" width="6" height="36" id="el_lf9GrROk6j"/></g></g></g><g id="el_o-EuxhgoAw_kYNRGDfcw" class="css-t9te0w" data-animator-group="true" data-animator-type="0"><g id="el_o-EuxhgoAw_3c3bzSjOJ" class="css-1r5375t" ata-animator-group="true" data-animator-type="2"><g id="el_o-EuxhgoAw"><rect x="11.33" width="6" height="36" id="el_-iueO8klO0"/></g></g></g><g id="el_F7mSMPhqpC_y_fKcpSxn" class="css-qknaag" data-animator-group="true" data-animator-type="0"><g id="el_F7mSMPhqpC_R6bNB6_Ys" class="css-1ruvd04" ata-animator-group="true" data-animator-type="2"><g id="el_F7mSMPhqpC"><rect width="6" height="36" id="el_dS5TKNZZ5w"/></g></g></g></svg></div><div><div class="css-1t7yl1y">0:00/2:06</div><div class="css-og85jy">-0:00</div></div></div></div></header><div class="css-uzyn7p"><div class="css-1vxywau"><p class="css-1nng8z9">transcript</p><h2 class="css-9wqu2x">Explosion Rocks Manhattan</h2><h4 class="css-qsd3hm">The authorities believe a homemade bomb caused the explosion in the Chelsea neighborhood about 8:30 p.m. Saturday, injuring 29.
