Bomb injures New York postal worker in letter device

A con cealed explosive in a letter mailed to Hadassah was opened by postal worker William Figueroa in a Bronx mail room causing severe injuries. The blast, linked to Arab terror networks in notes, prompted tightened security at focal post offices and marked the first U S injury since a wave of letter bombs last month. The device damaged Figueroa’s hand and forearm, and police bomb squads investigated the scene while authorities traced the original attackers to a series tied to Black September and Malay shipments.
