Explosion rips through reproductive center in Palm Springs, CA in possible act of terrorism

Emergency crews responded to a major explosion at a Palm Springs building late Saturday morning, as authorities investigate the cause—including the possibility of terrorism.

The blast occurred just before 11 a.m. at the American Reproductive Centers on North Indian Canyon Drive, near East Tachevah Drive. The force of the explosion was felt up to two miles away, and nearby structures sustained damage.

“It’s all on the table—including terrorism,” said Lt. William Hutchinson, speaking to The Desert Sun from the scene.

Witnesses described hearing a deafening boom, and videos circulating on social media show significant damage, including shattered windows at a neighboring liquor store.

Officials have not yet determined whether the explosion was deliberate or accidental. However, Hutchinson confirmed that at least one person appears to have died, and graphic images from the site suggest human remains were found.

Palm Springs Mayor Ron deHarte reported that multiple structures were still ablaze in the area following the explosion.

NBC Palm Springs referred to the incident as a “car explosion,” though authorities have not confirmed the source or nature of the blast.

Residents have been urged to stay clear of the area to allow emergency crews to manage the scene. First responders were still arriving as of noon.

The explosion occurred close to—but not directly on—the grounds of Desert Regional Medical Center, the city’s primary hospital.

The American Reproductive Centers facility does not offer abortion services. It is known as the Coachella Valley’s first full-service fertility clinic and IVF lab, according to its website. Since opening in 2006, it has provided services including in vitro fertilization, egg donation, genetic testing, fertility preservation, and support for LGBTQ+ family planning and surrogacy.

Tamara Cash, a local resident, was out jogging nearby when the explosion occurred.

“The sound was so intense it shook my whole body,” she told The Desert Sun. As she passed the building shortly after the blast, she said windows were blown out throughout the area, including at Desert Regional Medical Center.

False flag. Guaranteed. They desperately need something to use against Trump because he’s winning and they’re losing. Big League.

So many possible suspects...

I don’t see why parking a Tesla in front of an abortion clinic is considered ‘terrorism’, but on second thought...

“support for LGBTQ+ family planning and surrogacy”. Which of course has nothing to do with fertility. More information needed.

“Fertilizer is very explosive...”

It’s slow and takes quite a bit of prompting to go off.

Doesn't matter what it is. They're going to blame it on a "right wing extremist."
