The 2011 Košice McDonald's bombing was a partially successful terrorist attack, which occurred on December 28, 2011 in Košice, Slovakia. At approximately 5:30 p.m. CET a timed bomb exploded in a trash can in front of a McDonald's restaurant on Protifašistických bojovníkov 6, in Košice. As there was no one around at the time of the attack, it did not cause any casualties or injuries. Furthermore, it only exploded partially, which did not project nails attached to the explosive. The perpetrator, Ladislav Kuc, was convicted on 8 counts of terrorism, 1 count of attempted terrorism and 1 count of unlawful possession of weapons. He was sentenced to 25 years in a maximum-security prison. It was the first time that anyone had been convicted on terrorism charges in Slovakia.
