lord_casek Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 EBay building bombed: Exclusive IMs from an eBayer inside the building Firefighters rushed to eBay's San Jose headquarters last night after an explosion in a four-story eBay building. First thought to be a transformer, the cause is now being reported as a bomb. A live TV report from last night is available at KRON 4. If you have any information, photos, or first-hand accounts, e-mail tips@valleywag.com. A reader sends the following IM conversation they had with an eBay employee in the building. My friend was working late at eBay tonight when there was a large explosion within the building. Here's the breaking news story: Firefighters Respond to Explosions within eBay Building And here's the IM thread of them telling me a few minutes ago. friend-at-ebay: http://www.nbc11.com/news/10205869/detail.html me: wft? you there? friend: Crazy shit! A bunch of us were there working late and all of a sudden BOOOOOOM!!!! I ran outside looking for a plane crash. But is from inside the building. Some are saying it was a transformer. Windows were blown out. me: top floor? basement? or somewhere in between? friend: Bottom floor hallways were filled with smoke. I had to run through the buildings and yell for people to evacuate because....get this... There were no fricking fire alarms to pull. More after the jump. me: no fire alarms? friend: The bomb squad and hazmat are on site searching the buildings. friend: Yeah. Crazy. Couldn't find one anywhere. And I looked high and low. me: everybody OK afauk? friend: Yeah...no injuries. Just a lot of rattled nerves. === 45 minutes later == friend: Whoa. It was a bomb. http://cbs5.com/local/local_story_305004735.html Man, I never even considered that. I ran over there straight past the location of the bomb and was just thinking about making sure everyone was okay. me: wonder if it was Halloween punk kids. office near anything residential? friend: Dude...it was a huge explosion. friend: Rattled all the buildings on campus.
