One of twenty public service announcement billboards on display across the Phoenix metro area along highways are warning citizens about picking up discarded flashlights Thursday, June 7, 2012, in Phoenix. In three separate incidents, unsuspecting bystanders picked up standard-looking yellow flashlights and flicked the switch to turn them on. But instead of lighting up as they should have, bombs that had been left inside the flashlights exploded in their hands. Five people in all received minor injuries, but authorities in the Phoenix area still have no idea who committed the bombings last month.(AP Photo/Ross D. Franklin)
