FBI is investigating whether the explosion was an act of domestic terrorism

Sanders said no one was injured in the explosion and there was only minimal damage to the exterior of the building.

She added that a can full of gasoline had been placed near the device, but did not ignite in the explosion

Sanders said authorities have identified what she called a “potential person of interest” in the explosion.

She described the individual as a white male believed to be around 40 years old.

Sanders said he is balding and may be driving a “2000 or older model, dirty, white pick-up truck with paneling, a dark colored bed liner, open tailgate, and a missing or covered license plate.”

The NAACP chapter’s president, Harry Allen Jr., told The Gazette he would wait for the outcome of the investigation before labeling the explosion a hate crime.

I stand with Rep John Lewis~ It's sounds like Luck that the gas can didn't ignite and no one was hurt.

"Sanders added that the FBI’s Denver field office is working with the Colorado Springs Police Department at the scene. The Denver Post reported agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives were also on scene."

Anyone with information was urged to call [phone]
