SFGate.com: "Bomb defused at Starbucks on Van Ness"

This is via Michelle Malkin:
A San Francisco Starbucks is closed this afternoon after police defused a bomb placed in the bathroom.

Police received a call reporting a suspicious package at the coffee house, located at 1401 Van Ness Ave., at 1:15 p.m. The police explosives ordinance unit defused an improvised explosive device, or IED, around 2 p.m., Sgt. Neville Gittens said.

Gittens said he could not comment on the size or type of device found or on its potential explosive capacity. A police investigation is ongoing.
Disgruntled employee or terrorism? Will we find out? Stay tuned . . .
