BIXBY — An unknown person detonated a bomb Monday night outside an Air Force recruitment office in Bixby.

Federal authorities are investigating the explosion. The bomb, a pipe bomb, was detonated about 10:30 p.m. at an Air Force recruiting center in Post Rock Plaza near 104th Street and Memorial Drive.

Federal Bureau of Investigation special agents spent five to six hours collecting evidence, including a pipe, from the scene. FBI spokeswoman Jessi Rice said they will attempt to re-create the pipe bomb to gather more evidence about how it was made and possibly by whom.

Federal agents are investigating the possibility that the placement and detonation of the bomb was an incident of domestic terrorism. However, federal agents have reached "no conclusion" on the intent and are not calling it an act of domestic terrorism, Rice said.
