Suspect in Colorado NAACP bombing is "balding white male." So obviously NOT a terrorist attack.

"Improvised explosive device" set off near Colorado Springs NAACP office

An improvised explosive device was detonated against the exterior wall of a building housing the Colorado Springs chapter of the NAACP on Tuesday, officials said.

The explosion knocked items off the office walls but no one was injured.

................................

The FBI said that a gasoline can was placed next to the device but the contents did not ignite.

According to the the FBI, officials are seeking a "potential person of interest," described as a balding white male, about 40 years old.
