Two mail bombs explode in MD

A federal official says two packages exploded Thursday at state government buildings in Anne Arundel County, Maryland, according to NBC News.

Both were apparently sent through the mail, an official says. In both cases, the packages emitted a small bang or flame.

An official says two people, including a mailroom employee, suffered minor injuries.

State police tell NBC News that one package was about the size of a book. When it was opened, it emitted smoke. One of the packages was sent to the Jeffrey Building in downtown Annapolis. The other was sent to the Maryland Department of Transportation in Hanover.
