May 10, 2005 -- A grenade was thrown within 100 feet of the stage where President Bush was giving a speech today in the former Soviet republic of Georgia, local authorities told the U.S. Secret Service.
The device did not go off and no one was hurt, the Secret Service said.
Local police told the Secret Service the device was thrown as Bush spoke in Freedom Square in Tblisi, the Georgian capital. The device hit someone and fell to the ground about 100 feet away from the stage, the Secret Service said.
The Secret Service said it was unaware of any disturbance until it was informed of the incident by Georgian police.
