A man has been charged with bombing two Pacific Gas & Electric transformers in San Jose, including one in front of a Macy's store at a mall.
A Bay Area man was charged Friday with detonating two bombs at Pacific Gas & Electric transformers in San Jose, including one outside a Macy’s store at the Westfield Oakridge Mall, according to a criminal complaint.
On Jan. 5 at about 3:16 a.m., San Jose police responded to a report of an explosion in South San Jose that damaged a building and broke the windows of a nearby dental office, according to the complaint. Scott Anderson, who has links to a white supremacist group, was arrested in connection to six bombings of vehicles and a mailbox in the Fresno area.
Minutes later, the backpack and transformer exploded and burned for several minutes before there was a large blast. The incident caused more than $20,000 in damage to the PG&E transformer alone.
