21-year-old serial bomber Hugh Rutkowski aka The Mad Bomber of Milwaukee leaves a bomb on a window ledge in Fifth Precinct Police Station, Third and Hadley, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, United States. Although the damage to the building and surrounding houses was severe, the occupants of the police building escaped injury. The same was true less than 11 minutes later when the second bomb went off, this time at the Third Precinct Police Station at Twelfth and West Vine Streets.
