On June 3, 1985,   police cautiously pursued a Chevy Blazer with four passengers. A slow chase had persisted for several miles-- from Greensboro into Summerfield, North Carolina. Suddenly, the Blazer stopped and a bomb was detonated from within.  The vehicle and four bodies exploded into pieces on NC Hwy. 150.  This is the conclusion to the harrowing story of how bitterness and hatred led to the deaths of nine people and destroyed three families in the process.
