Description: "03/06/2008: A bomb exploded in front of an armed forces recruiting station in Times Square, New York City, at 3:43 a.m. The low order explosive was contained in a military-style ammunition box. There were no injuries; however, the blast broke windows. Authorities later said the bombing might have been the work of four men in a car who fled from a car at a Canada border crossing. Authorities found bags that contained passports of four people, along with the anarchist writings and photographs."
