Chicago Dem Offices Bombed

Here.

(Chicago) -- The West Side office of Ald. Danny Solis (25th) was bombed early Monday morning.

A "small explosive device" was thrown through the window of the office, at 2439 S. Oakley Av., and blew a small hole in the floor when it exploded, according to Marquette District Capt. Fred Konet.

Solis shares the office with State Representative Edward Acevedo. Both are Democrats.

The front windows and door of the two-story brick building were also damaged by the force of the explosion.

No injuries were reported and there was no description of an offender or of any vehicles which may have been used, Konet said. The bomber struck just before the snow began to fall, about 3 a.m., so there were no tracks left for police to discover.
