Similar occurence in Tallahassee Florida yesterday. Powder from a box found in a post office. HazMat team called in. Still waiting for results.
Also had several envelopes found at the rest stop on I-10 where the British Tourist, Gary Colley, had been murdered years ago. Powder, and "Anthrax" misspelled on the front.
I hope these people who think they are having fun with this know the amount of shtuff they're gonna get kicked outta them if they ever get caught...this is not something to joke about.
It's time to say that anyone who plays these kind of games in a situation like this will face a stiff fine and time in the pokey. The police and FBI have enough to do without wasting their time on false alarms. If there are enough of these distractions, they might miss the real thing when it happens because they are spread too thin following false trails.
