Steve Marshall, the state’s attorney general, says no staff or personnel injured by explosion in Montgomery on Saturday

Alabama’s attorney general on Monday said that an explosive device had been detonated outside his offices over the weekend in the state’s capital city of Montgomery.

“Thankfully, no staff or personnel were injured by the explosion. The Alabama Law Enforcement Agency will be leading the investigation, and we are urging anyone with information to contact them immediately,” the attorney general, Steve Marshall, said in a statement.

The explosion occurred early on Saturday morning.

    I think it’s far more likely that whoever did this was upset about embryos being ruled to be people. I doubt they had heard what the AG said and if they did I doubt they believed it.

      Yeah but I don’t think the AG’s office had anything to do with the ruling as it was a civil wrongful death case between private parties, so it makes no sense to bomb AG’s office.

      I suppose we’ll see as the investigation unfolds.
