29 March 1951 - NEW YORK CITY'S 'MAD BOMBER' STRIKES AGAIN: Grand
Central Station commuters witness the explosion of a homemade bomb.
Authorities will later tie this terrorism to the so-called Mad Bomber
after five more explosives are detonated throughout the city in the
coming months.

George Peter Metesky, better known as the Mad Bomber, was an American
electrician and mechanic who terrorized New York City for 16 years in
the 1940s and 1950s with explosives that he planted in theaters,
terminals, libraries and offices. Bombs were left in phone booths,
storage lockers and restrooms in public buildings, including Grand
Central Terminal, Pennsylvania Station, Radio City Music Hall, the New
York Public Library, the Port Authority Bus Terminal and the RCA
Building, and in the New York City Subway. Metesky also bombed movie
theaters, where he cut into seat upholstery and slipped his explosive
devices inside.
