ELGOIBAR, Spain: A bomb exploded outside the offices of Spain's ruling Socialist party in a Basque town in northern Spain early Sunday, causing considerable damage. No one was injured. Basque police said in a statement that the bomb exploded at 3:25 a.m. (0125 GMT) in Elgoibar, following a telephone warning in the name of Basque separatist group ETA. The warning was received by emergency road services and police cordoned off streets and evacuated residents after finding a suspicious package. Elgoibar is an industrial town on the banks of the Deba River, 13 kilometers (8 miles) from Spain's northern coast. Regional Interior Ministry spokesman Javier Balza said investigators had clues about the culprits behind the bombing. "There is an idea, or analysis, shared by local, regional and national police forces about the structure of what we are facing," Balza said.
