Possible Terror Attack on MLK Parade in Spokane Thwarted
http://www.splcenter.org/blog/2011/01/18/possible-terror-attack-on-mlk-parade-thwarted/

Posted in Extremist Crime by Bill Morlin on January 18, 2011


A backpack bomb with the potential of killing or injuring dozens of people was found Monday along the route of a Martin Luther King Day “unity march” in downtown Spokane, Wash., authorities said today.

“It was a device that clearly was intended to harm or kill people,’’said Frank Harrill, a senior FBI agent and spokesman for the bureau’s Inland Northwest Joint Terrorism Task Force.

The FBI posted a $20,000 reward Tuesday and released three photographs, including one of the black Swiss-Army backpack that contained the destructive device.
