Right now, federal agents say this explosion is "likely" linked to attacks by what they believe is a serial bomber. KSAT reports the medium-sized package contained metal shrapnel and nails and was headed to Austin when it exploded on a conveyer track.
The FBI is leading an investigation that includes the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives as well as Schertz police and the San Antonio Police Department bomb squad.
The person injured was not seriously hurt and treated at the scene, officials said.
