NYPD: Package sent to CNN had possible live bomb, white powder
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleNew York City’s police commissioner says a package sent to CNN’s offices in New York contained what appears to be a live explosive and an envelope containing white powder.
At a briefing near Manhattan’s Time Warner Center, Commissioner James O’Neill pledges to bring the perpetrators to justice.
The police department’s top counterterrorism official, John Miller, says the substance is being tested to see if it is dangerous.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo says at the briefing that “we will not allow these terrorist thugs to change the way we live our lives.”
Investigators say the device appears to be similar to explosives sent to former US president Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and billionaire George Soros.
