This is the fourth blast in Atlanta in the past 7 months.
The olympic centennial park explosion happened last July.
One person died in that explosion and over a hundred people were injured.
In January two explosions occurred at an abortion clinic.
The second explosion was apparently set to explode when investigators arrived at the scene.
Investigators believe Friday's blast could be related to the other bombings.
The olympic park and the northside abortion clinic bombings involved nails used as shrapnel.
Like the olympic park bombing this explosive device was in a backpack.
Also -- at the nightclub there was a second bomb planted -- as there was at the abortion clinic bombings.
Members of the gay and lesbian community have announced their outrage at what they say could be considered a hate crime.
ELIZABETH BIRCH/EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR/HUMAN RIGHTS CAMPAIGN:
The A-T-F and F-B-I are now in charge of the investigation -- and hopefully they will soon have some answers to what could continue to be a puzzling problem in Atlanta.
