Two bombs were found inside a Borders Bookstore in a suburban Denver shopping mall overnight, the FBI said on Saturday.

Police were summoned to the Colorado Mills Mall in Lakewood early on Saturday after a store alarm sounded, the FBI said in a news release.

Police discovered evidence of forced entry and found two explosive devices.

The Jefferson County Bomb Squad responded to the scene, but the FBI did not say if the devices detonated.

2. Given where Borders is headed...

waiting a few more months for the store to close would have been more cost effective.

7. I know that outlet mall... I actually thought that Borders had closed

as part of their bankrupcy..... That brings to mind some semblance of possible motives, though....sigh
