Bomb Explodes Near CHP Office Causes Hole No Major Damage
A noisy bomb made with black powder and nuts and balls exploded about 50 feet from the California Highway Patrol office in Oakland. It tore a four inch deep hole two feet across in a graveled lot but caused no damage. The blast occurred Wednesday night and appears to have been thrown from the Grove Shafter freeway above the office. Samuel Ye Teday was involved in the incident as bail reduction arguments continued. Oakes remains in serious condition at San Francisco General Hospital with lung fluid, a fractured skull, and brain injury requiring surgery. Pritchard received a 30 day county jail sentence in an unrelated battery case handled by Municipal Judge Albert A. Axelrod.
