Bomb victim in critical condition in Augusta

DALTON --- One of the victims of a bombing at a north Georgia law firm remained in critical condition Saturday with burns to one-third of his body.

Anne Cordeiro, a spokeswoman for the Joseph M. Still Burn Center, said attorney Jim Phillips was transported there from Dalton after the explosion rocked his law firm Friday.

Police say 78-year-old Lloyd Cantrell, angry over a family property dispute, set off a pipe bomb at the firm of McCamy, Phillips, Tuggle & Fordham. Mr. Cantrell died in the blast.

Two other victims were treated at a hospital and released, and one was admitted.

The victim's condition was not known.
