A homemade bomb exploded in the parking lot of the Wendy's on Adams Avenue in West Huntington Saturday evening.

The good news for everyone nearby was that no one was hurt and no property was damaged in the explosion.

Fire Marshals tell WSAZ.com the homemade bottle bomb exploded around 8:00 Saturday evening.

It went off just a few feet away from the drive-thru pickup window.

Investigators say this is the fifth bomb of its kind to go off just in the past few weeks.

At this point police aren't sure if the five homemade bomb cases are related.
