NEW YORK (AP) - Two improvised explosives were thrown into the rear of the Mexican Consulate early Friday, causing small explosions that blew out some windows, authorities said. No injuries were reported. Police believe someone on a bicycle threw the devices—made from replica grenades packed with explosive powder—at 3 a.m., New York Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said.
The commissioner said witnesses reported seeing someone on a bike at that time near the consulate in Midtown Manhattan.
Edgar Trujillo, the press attache with the Mexican Consulate, said three windows were shattered.
Police and FBI agents were at the scene. The block was cordoned off by police tape.

Could easily be bitter Obrador supporters. Obrador won Puebla handily, which is the state from where the majority of Mexicans in New York come from.

I wondered what was going on. I passed by around noon...the street was blocked off, crowds were gathered and there were still tons of police on the scene.

Righteously p-ssed-off Americans? If they are resorting to terrorist tactics, they aren't righteous.
Whoever did this needs to be caught and thrown in jail for a very long time.

Tired of the Matricular cards basically buying Illegals entre into the USA? When Mexicans are involved, anything is possible. Even the less obvious.
I won't even try to educate the ignorant about Mexican culture, across all classes, specially those likely to have come here without an invitation.
A lifetime of experience including many visits in years past.

bingo. First thing I thought is its about time to show how racist the US people are by setting off a bomb in your own consulate. It is election time and the Dems have no ideas, they have to get out the vote somehow, the noose thing isn’t working very well.

When the fighting starts there will be 2 sides. One side will side with the Americans and one side will side with the Mexicans. Our Military will side with the Mexicans.

Are you supporting terrorism? Would you have supported the fire bombing of Dresden and the atomic bombing of Nagasaki and Hiroshima?

The bicycle is an odd sort of get away vehicle. It doesn’t move quickly. It is favored by anarcho-socialist radicals, however.
