I haven't seen any other reports of this, which is surprising given the current fear over terrorism, but a CBS affiliate in Alamogordo, New Mexico, reports that a bomb went off at a primate lab owned by the Coulston Foundation in the early morning hours of September 20.
Station KRQE quoted Coulston spokesman Don McKinney as saying the bomb went off around 4:15 a.m. on September 20 at the facility. No animals were kept at the facility, and no one was injured, but the device did an estimated $1 million in damages.
KRQE reported that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms along with the FBI are investigating.
