Los Angeles Times: Firebombs found at UC Riverside; ceremony canceled

UC Riverside officials Friday canceled a commencement and some final exams after finding two homemade firebombs on campus and receiving threatening letters.

The series of events began about 6 a.m. Friday with a tree fire outside the Life Sciences building, near the outdoor Carillon Mall where the graduation ceremony for the A. Gary Anderson School of Management was to take place.
