steven36 Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 NEW YORK (FOX 5 NY) - A massive police response was underway at a U.S. post office on West 52nd St. between 8th Ave. and 9th Ave. in Midtown Manhattan Friday after a suspicious package was intercepted there, according to the FBI. The NYPD has converged on 322 West 52nd St. and 8th Ave. in Midtown Manhattan following reports of a suspicious package. The NYPD Bomb Squad and other aw enforcement converged at 322 West 52nd St. where postal workers discovered the package at about 8:30 a.m. A short time later, police confirmed the suspicious package was addressed to former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper in care of CNN. The package contained a device similar to the pipe bombs mailed to prominent Democrats and CNN in recent days, said FBI officials. The Associated Press reported the devices- containing timers and batteries and packaged in a bubble-padded manila envelope bearing six stamps and a return address for Wasserman Schultz, a Florida Democrat and former chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee- were not rigged like booby-trapped package bombs that would explode upon opening. But law enforcement was uncertain whether the devices were poorly designed or never intended to cause physical harm. The package was removed by the NYPD Bomb Squad and was en route to the NYPD's bomb detonation center in The Bronx. This came as news broke of a confirmed pipe bomb mailed from a South Florida mail facility addressed to Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ), bringing the total number of pipe bombs to 12. The focus of the federal investigation into the devices is on the mail facility in Opa-locka. All of the intended recipients have been critical of the Trump administration.
