SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico —
Bombs damaged three U.S. post offices today, and an unexploded bomb was found at a military recruiting office, said police, who blamed leftist groups promoting political independence for Puerto Rico.
The explosions occurred at post offices in the southern coastal town of Guanica, the central mountain town of Cidra, and in the Santurce sector of San Juan. No injuries were reported. A fourth bomb discovered near a U.S. armed forces recruiting center in the town of Toa Baja was deactivated.
