Nation IN BRIEF : MARYLAND : Bomb Probers Say Priest Was Target
Authorities have decided a bomb that injured an Alabama priest was aimed at him and not at a neighboring federal agent, and they are investigating ties to Maryland, a newspaper reported. Officials now say that the Rev. Michael D. Schnatterly, an assistant at Christ Episcopal Church in St. Michaels, Md., from 1989 to 1992, was the intended target, the (Easton) Star Democrat reported. The newspaper quoted an unidentified law enforcement source as saying federal agents are focusing on a telephone number that may link the bomber to an Eastern Shore job center in St. Michaels.
