Bomb blast threat halts Pittsburgh bound train
An attempted bomb exploded prematurely beside the Pennsylvania line near West Belle Vernon, halting a train carrying a large shipment of Pittsburgh Steel Products from Allenport. The timed device failed before detonation, witnesses reported, with several bystanders at the station knocked to the ground but unharmed. Police believe it was a sabotaged blast tied to a broader plot.
