A man seriously injured by a nail bomb south of Brisbane may have been the victim of a targeted attack, police say.
The 52-year-old suffered serious shrapnel wounds to his chest, abdominal region and limbs when the improvised device inside a bucket he was moving exploded in his front yard on Jacaranda Ave in Kingston, about 5.30pm on Thursday.
His injuries were so serious he needed treatment from QAS medical director Stephen Rashford and the High Acuity Response Unit before undergoing surgery in Princess Alexandra Hospital.
