Message-ID: <8@ucbcad.UUCP> Date: Sun, 26-May-85 17:22:26 EDT Article-I.D.: ucbcad.8 Posted: Sun May 26 17:22:26 1985 Date-Received: Mon, 27-May-85 07:38:43 EDT References: <1457@utah-gr.UUCP> Organization: UC Berkeley CAD Group, Berkeley, CA Lines: 15 It wasn't a letter bomb, it was a package that was left in the 2nd floor terminal room. Last I heard, the police beleived that it was rigged to explode when opened, instead of being timed. So it was evidently designed explicitly to kill a random individual. A similar device injured the chairman of the department 3 years ago. Someone that sick I just don't understand. The grad student injured was here on post-graduate study from the air force. He was a fighter pilot who wanted to be an astronaut, but the injuries to his arm and eye could very well ground him. Peter Moore moore@Berkeley, ucbvax!moore
