The list of what police have found as far as devices so far:

...Police also found a pipe bomb containing nails and suspected C4 explosives inside an ice chest at Bourbon Street and Orleans Avenue, while a similar suspected device was found at JAX Brewery but deemed not to be explosive.

Another was found in the 600 block of Bourbon Street, and a fourth “possible device” was found in a purple suitcase near North Rampart Street and Esplanade, according to the account.


The two confirmed pipe bombs were both “wired for remote detonation, and a corresponding remote control was discovered inside the suspect’s truck,” the memo states. Also in the rented truck were two mason jars that contained suspected liquid explosives.
