Porta-potty blown to pieces in NY park in suspected fireworks explosion: ‘Like a bomb’

Fire in the bowl!

A portable toilet was blown to pieces in a Yonkers park — sparking a massive law enforcement response, according to reports and authorities.

The blue porta-potty exploded in Bregano Park around 8:20 p.m. on Monday, sending a loud boom echoing through the nearby area, WABC reported.

Yonkers police, the Westchester County Bomb Squad, and agents with the FBI and the ATF descended upon the cordoned-off park in the aftermath of the explosion and collected evidence from the blown-apart johnny-on-the-spot in protective suits, the outlet reported.

Police did not find anyone in the park that evening and believe the explosion was set off using fireworks, according to the publication.

Residents have reported hearing several similar blasts at the same time of night over the past few weeks — but said Monday night’s porta-john explosion was the loudest yet.

“Last night, it sounded like a bomb,” resident Maria Sigismondo told the outlet. “I was sitting in the living room, and I went, ‘Oh my god.’ The whole floor shook. And then my neighbors, you know, and everybody were just talking about it.”

“I am pretty concerned, especially when you see the FBI, but hopefully they get to the bottom of it. You know, you worry about it,” Sigismondo said. “The world today is a little strange.”

“At first, we thought it was like fireworks. Then it got louder and bigger, but last night was really big,” said another resident, Kenny Reyes. “And now this.”

The toilet explosion comes after residents of nearby White Plains had similarly been tormented by a series of mysterious, thunderous booms for weeks.

The alleged culprit of the White Plains blasts, Raymond Elders, 65, was arrested on federal charges for allegedly harboring at least 25 suspected explosive devices in his apartment.

The Yonkers Police Department did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment Tuesday night.
