Palm Springs Mayor Ron deHarte told the Los Angeles Times he could "confirm it was a bomb in or near a vehicle parked at the building."

The FBI and ATF have responded to the scene. Governor Gavin Newsom has been briefed.

The explosion was first reported at around 11 a.m. on Saturday at American Reproductive Centers on N Indian Canyon, near E Tachevah Drive, according to city officials.
