Firebombing hits Boston NAACP headquarters in midnight attack
A firebomb was thrown into the empty Boston NAACP headquarters just after midnight in what appears to be retaliation for a court ruling stripping South Boston High School from local school board control. Damage estimates ranged from 20 000 to 30 000 dollars by the NAACP, while a Fire Department spokesman put the damage at about 500 dollars. The device landed inside a window and the flames were quickly put out.
