304: Atlanta Centennial Park Bombing

304: Atlanta Centennial Park Bombing

In 1996, the Summer Olympics were held in Atlanta, Georgia. On July 27th, thousands had gathered at Centennial Park for a late night concert. The FBI was told that a tip was called into 911 saying that a bomb would go off in the park within 30 minutes. A search ensued, and the bomb was located by security guard Richard Jewell. An evacuation was ordered, but three minutes into it, the bomb detonated. Two people died as a result of the bombing and 111 others were injured. The person responsible wouldn't be captured until 2003, but before that, Richard Jewell was cast as the hero, then, unjustly the villain in the bombing.
