OLYMPIC PARK BOMBING The festive atmosphere at Centennial Olympic Park early Saturday morning between songs by Jack Mack and the Heart Attack was shattered hen a bomb exploded. Two people died and more than 100 were injured. Just before 1:25 a.m., as thousands of night owls watched the concert, a security guard spotted a suspicious package at the base of an audio mixing tower. Police were in the process of investigating and clearing the area when the bomb went off.
