Bombs Tossed at Abortion Clinic

TULSA, Okla. — Two firebombs were thrown at an abortion clinic Wednesday, causing minor smoke and fire damage. No one was inside the building, which was closed for the New Year’s holiday.
One of the bombs broke through a window and started a small fire. The second started a grass fire outside, said Sherri Finik, director of the Reproductive Services Clinic.
The bombs set off smoke detectors, bringing firefighters to the scene.
Finik called the attack “an act of futility and stupidity” and said the clinic would remain open.
Police and fire investigators were investigating and said they had no immediate suspects.
Finik said the clinic has taken security measures, such as installing motion detectors, and would review its security system to see if more precautions are needed.
