Medical examiner attacked, tied to bomb outside office By Yolanda Jones [EMAIL PROTECTED] June 2, 2002 An unknown assailant attacked the Shelby County medical examiner late Saturday, wrapping him with barbed wire and strapping a bomb to his chest before leaving him in a stairwell outside his downtown Memphis office. Dr. O. C. Smith received minor injuries from the attack that included chemical burns. His attacker threw an acid type substance on Smith's face as he left work at 1060 Madison around 10 p.m. Smith was found by a security guard shortly after midnight. This is the second time in the last three months an explosive device or bomb has been found at the Shelby County Regional Forensic Center, which houses the morgue and Smith's office. On March 13, a bomb and two smaller explosive-type devices were found in the stairwell outside of the forensic center. Sunday afternoon, local and federal officials said the devices are "similar," but are still investigating. They could not say if the same person or persons made the devices. A $5,000 reward is being offered by Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms Bureau for any information about suspects in this recent incident and the one on March 13. Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 528-CASH or the ATF hotline at (888) ATF-BOMB. -|Yolanda Jones: 529-2380 <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
