Istanbul - Six people were injured on Sunday when a bomb exploded at the entrance to a McDonald's fast-food restaurant in the northeastern Turkish city of Trabzon, the Anatolia news agency reported.

"A bomb went off, but we don't know what it was made of," said Ramazan Akyurek, chief of security in the city, the largest in the region.

"We have a description and we are working on it," he said at the restaurant.

"We don't know if it is the work of a (terrorist) organisation... Our sole aim is to be able to arrest" whoever was responsible for the attack, he said.

Witnesses spoke of a young man running away from the restaurant, part of the international McDonald's chain.

"There was a huge noise as the windows... were smashed," said Zeki Akosy, who was nearby at the time.

"At that moment, I saw a man aged about 30 running away... People were shouting 'Catch him'."

The injured, mostly teenagers, were taken to hospital.

I've let off a couple of "bombs" after a quarter pounder. However, I have the good taste to go in the other room or beg pardon. Then again they can have their Drano, our Black Lab and a couple of White Castles is sort of "Nature's Daisy Cutter"

Your correct and proper action would be squat down with your butt over the hole from which the manhole cover has been removed. Your procedure thereafter would make you a "Sewerside Boomer" !!! ;-))
