BREAKING...Blast rips through U.S. embassy compound in Athens
 Euro, Asian and antipodal 'Burgers, go find us some links.
Police said the explosion was caused by an "attack". "The blast was caused by an attack from the outside of the embassy. We are not in a position to say what kind of device was used," a senior police official said. A US embassy spokesman said there were no injuries. Glass in neighbouring buildings was shattered. Police cordoned off all roads around the compound. The tightly guarded building is surrounded by a 9ft-high steel fence. Guards are posted at every entrance and at street corners around it. The embassy is frequently the focal point of demonstrations in the city. Posted by: Crose Shinelet6980 2007-01-12 |
