At Least Two Pipe Bombs Explode Near Local Mosque

LAST UPDATE: 12/20/2005 11:26:28 PM


At least two pipe bombs explode near a local mosque.


The bombs went off at 3674 Clifton Avenue in Clifton just before 11:00 p.m. Tuesday. The building is connected to a mosque.


The bomb squad and arson investigators were on the scene late Tuesday night.


No one was reportedly hurt.


The street was shut down as a safety precaution

I was wrong...it was the small one in Clifton. Glad your daughter is home...

[nevergore]

Heck...I used to make pipe bombs as a kid and blow up tree stumps etc.....

BTW, you can't get M-80's anymore.....

But you can alway get pipe, powder and fuse....

Uh, saying the Mosque was not the target when its the mosque that got bombed

It would make sense if the pipe bombs were leaving the building on the way to somewhere else. Premature Special Delivery.

On the other hand, it could've been a suicide-wino in their doorway.

update^^^^^^

Please keep me up to date. I have a hard time getting info here at work.

I go to school at UC but really not all that familiar with the Clifton area.

If it was connected to the mosque, then could it be safe to say that those making the bombs are connected to the mosque.

What were they going to blow up in Cincinnati?

[piasa]

Les Nessman and the WKRP in Cincinatti tv show.

Why would they blow a mosque up? It doesn't seem right. But we will have to wait and see how this plays out.

[benjibrowder]

Thanks, just curious.

From WKRP in Cincinnati... the funniest sitcome episode ever. As a promotion, the station manager throw live turkeys out of a helicoter, not realizing that turkeys can't fly...

[carton253]

Oh...the humanity...

[Carolina_Thor]

Actually, it was Gordon Jump's character (station manager) that was quoted. Best episode the show ever had.

[Sacajaweau]

If they were making bombs in building next to the mosque....we'll hear a wall of silence and the FBI will be all over the place.

[carton253]

Actually, I will go with the best sitcom episode ever... it still makes me laugh to think about it.

[the final gentleman]

Oh my god, The Baptists are on a rampage. Close the borders!

[carton253]

That's almost funny...

[Carolina_Thor]

I can't argue against that, I had trouble stopping laughing long enough to describe the episode to my wife who was too young to remember the show. Thanks to whoever brought it up. Needed a laugh today after cleaning up a 60 ft oak tree that decided to lay across the roof of my house.

I wish I could find it on a DVD...I would buy the set just for that one episode even though there were other classics... the time when Venus and Johnny were having the drink off to show the effects of alcohol on the reflexes and Johnny kept getting faster.
