PayPal Explosion Intentional But No Motive Yet
eBay spokesperson Hani Durzy said authorities have confirmed that Tuesday evening’s explosion on the PayPal campus in San Jose, California, was not accidental. The device blew out a window, but there were no injuries, and all 45 employees were safely evacuated from the building.
Durzy said many employees had left early on Tuesday to take their children trick-or-treating. The explosion was reported at 7:34 in the evening Pacific time. The most important thing, Durzy said, is that no one was hurt. The next most important thing is that eBay is working with authorities who are conducting a detailed site inspection.
Durzy did not speculate on motive and said only that there was a “device” involved. He said Tuesday’s occurrence caused the company to be even more aggressive in their security procedures, which are already stringent.
