The Black Tom Bombing was a large explosion in Jersey City, New Jersey in 1916 that was possibly caused by German saboteurs. The explosion destroyed over $20 million worth of war munitions that were being stored at a depot on Black Tom Island and was felt as far away as Philadelphia. Local residents near the explosion site were awakened by the blast and windows of homes and buildings within a few miles were shattered by the force of the detonation.
