AP - YANGON, Myanmar (AP) - A crude petrol bomb was tossed Thursday morning into the residential compound of Myanmar leader Aung San Suu Kyi, but she was not at home and damage was minor, officials said. Suu Kyi was in the capital Naypyitaw when the incident took place, government spokesman Zaw Htay said. Suu Kyi's main residence and the target of the petrol bomb is in the country's biggest city, Yangon. The Nobel Peace Prize laureate lived there under house arrest for several years during military rule while she headed her pro-democracy movement. Her National League for Democracy party took power in 2012.
