The FBI is looking for a white man in his 40s after an explosive device was detonated outside the Colorado Springs chapter of the NAACP on Tuesday, reports the Colorado Springs Gazette.

No one was injured and the damage is limited to the exterior of the building.

The FBI described a person of interest who was seen getting into an older model pickup truck and driving away with d\hidden or missing plates.

“Some neighbors came out and said they saw a Caucasian gentleman get into a white truck,” said Gene Southerland, who owns Mr. G’s Hair Design Studios, which shares the building with the NAACP office.

“It was such a beautiful day and everything, sunny. And in broad daylight, you hear this explosion. It’s frightening,” he said.

At least two volunteers were inside at the time and saw an incendiary device and a can of gas.
