The NYPD says they found an envelope containing “white powder” as part of the original suspicious package, which was found to be a live explosive device, that was discovered at the New York office of CNN on Wednesday.
“Responding officers identified a device that appeared to be a live explosive device,” said NYPD commissioner James O’Neill, during a press conference on Wednesday. “Additionally, there was an envelope containing white powder that was discovered as part of that original packaging, and we’re investigating that now.”
“That’s being tested now downstairs,” said FBI special agent in charge Bryan Paarman.
New York City’s Time Warner Center, including the offices and studios of CNN, was evacuated on Wednesday after receiving a suspicious package. O’Neill added that, “the area has been swept with dogs and equipment and found no additional threats besides the white powder.”
