I grew up in the Lakewood/Balmoral area of Edgewater. About 1955-1956 a bomb was detonated at the NE corner of Lakewood/Catalpa, sometime after midnight. It (rather instantly) killed the guy who was carrying it. There was talk it was meant for the house on the SE corner. We walked past the site on the way to school in the morning. The police and/or coroner had already picked up the larger pieces, but there was enough of the bomber spread around to cause a stir.

Does anyone rememeber this or know where some info would be available? I have no idea as to how much this was publicized in the newspapers or on TV.
