Bomb explodes outside legislature - TW
STAFF REPORTER


A homemade bomb exploded near the Legislative Yuan at 10:24pm Saturday. Nobody was injured. Nevertheless the sensitive location of the bomb has prompted heightened police concern.

According to a Legislative Yuan surveillance tape, a male suspect placed a paper bag on the sidewalk of Qingdao E. Road (????) which borders the Legislative Yuan at 10:17pm. At 10:24pm, an explosion was heard. At 10:31 a small fire was reported and police from the legislative building went, with a fire extinguisher, to put it out. At first they though the source of the fire was an electrical transformer. As they approached the site to extinguish the fire another explosion occurred, scattering debris about the area.

After the police re-examined the scene, they confirmed that the source of explosion was a homemade bomb instead of the transformer. The Legislative Yuan police immediately informed Taipei City Police Headquarter's Chungcheng First Precinct (?????).
