Two bombs were set under the autos in her carport
​A woman in Del City, Oklahoma was at home when she heard a boom that sounded like thunder. So she opened the door, only to find the two cars in her carport immersed in smoke and flames.

The unnamed woman fled, fearing gas in the tanks would explode. Neighbors who heard multiple explosions called police. But this wasn't a case of engineering gone bad. Someone, says the ATF, had placed two bombs under the cars.

Police say there's no doubt she was targeted in the explosions. Though the first bomb blew up, the second one failed to detonate and was disarmed. But the woman has no idea why anyone would target her. "Who would want to hurt me?" she asked  KOCO-TV. "Why would someone want to hurt me? I don't understand what is going on. It seems like a dream."
