Planned Parenthood clinic in California damaged
MADERA, Calif. — Federal and local authorities are investigating a fiery after-hours attack on a Planned Parenthood clinic in California.
Madera police say someone threw a makeshift explosive through the clinic’s window early Thursday morning, breaking the glass and burning blinds.
Police say this is the first violent crime they have seen against the clinic, which has been open for 20 years.
A clinic spokeswoman says the office will remain closed through the Labor Day weekend and reopen Tuesday.
