Wall Street bombing in New York City

A wagon loaded with explosives detonated outside the J.P. Morgan & Co. building on Wall Street, killing 38 people and injuring more than 140 in one of the deadliest terrorist attacks in U.S. history.

The bombing heightened national fear of radical violence, triggered a major federal and local investigation, and underscored domestic security concerns during the 1920 presidential campaign.
