Two Cars Damaged By “Explosive Device” In Danville Parking Lot Sunday
Danville police are investigating the apparent detonation of an “explosive device” in the parking lot of the Smart & Final store, 460 Diablo Road, on Sunday, May 27 of this month. The store is located in the Green Valley Shopping Center.
The incident was reported at 7:12 p.m. that evening, according to town spokesman Geoff Gillette, and two cars sustained damage when the device – of unknown type – detonated.
There were no initial reports of injuries, where the “device” was placed or how it was detonated. There was also nothing to tie the explosion to the numerous reports of a loud explosion in Lafayette early the following morning.
That incident was reported to us by several neighbors who reported hearing a “substantial blast” which shook the neighborhood around 2 a.m.
We’ll have more on this story as additional details become available.

That would explain a few things if you can tie it to the Lafayette boomer.
Keeping our suspicious little minds open and drawing no connections, Daniel, until we can do it with confidence!
Man out there said pipe bomb?
Possible, perhaps even likely given the descriptions of the explosions we’ve gotten. However, we haven’t seen the evidence.
Could of been fireworks… such as an M-80 or M-1000.
Quite right, George… that was our initial take.
Anything more on this?
Keep us updated please we have been wondering what has been going on for a long time.
