From Times Wire Reports
FBI agents investigating a bombing at Yale Law School dusted for fingerprints and showed students a sketch of a man seen leaving the empty classroom just minutes before the blast.
The explosive -- which investigators believe was a pipe bomb -- damaged two rooms Wednesday, and about 300 rare law books in a room below were soaked with water from the building’s sprinkler system.
