Nashville RV bomber Anthony Quinn Warner was a weed-loving boy with a “Magnum mustache, PI,” who hated cops, a former co-worker said.
“She was a kind of hippie. He had long hair, “Tom Lundborg told The Daily Beast about his daily relationships for years with the Christmas Day suicide terrorist from the 1970s.
Lundborg, who was a teenager when he first met Warner in his 20s, said he “looked at him” while working in Antioch, a suburb of Nashville, where Warner remained until his death.
“He was a smart, arrogant guy. I went with him all day every day, during the summers, at least for a couple of years, ”he said of his partner who worked at Lundborg’s father’s company, ACE Alarms.
“He was a small boy, quiet-type, but good-looking for girls,” Lundborg said, saying Warner loved smoking weed.
“My father went diving with him. It was very popular with the women there, you could say. I didn’t flirt much, but it looked like they liked it. ”
Warner told him he had been in the Navy, though there is no background, as he had never served in the U.S. Armed Forces, The Daily Beast noted.
Warner hated police and lectured to his young comrade whenever they saw officers.
He told The Daily Beast that Warner would tell him, “I hate cops. They are all corrupt. Never trust a policeman. ”
Lundborg said Warner “betrayed” his parents and set up his own alarm company, bringing some ACE customers with him, but failed because he “didn’t have the personality” to deal with customers.
She last saw him in 2007, she told the outlet, without detailing anything that suggested the 63-year-old horror committing her explosive caravan on Christmas morning.
Authorities have also said Warner was never on the radar and that his only arrest was in 1978 for possession of marijuana.
This year, he seemed to change his life in ways that suggest he had long planned his suicide explosion.
He gave away his car, telling the recipient he had cancer, told a customer he was retiring and even gave away his house.
Less than a week before Christmas, he also smiled as he told a neighbor that “Nashville and the world will never forget me.”
