The blast happened near a barbershop next to the NAACP just before 11 a.m. The neighborhood suffered minor damage but no injuries occurred. It is unclear whether the explosive was directed toward the civil-rights organization. A gasoline canister was placed next to the bomb but did not ignite, according to an FBI spokeswoman.
