The Fox Media News headquarters in New York received an envelope containing a white powdery substance Friday, forcing them to immediately evacuate the 21st Floor and bring in a HAZMAT crew.
The contents was ultimately found to be “non-hazardous.”
A statement from a Fox Media spokesperson sent to employees said the envelope was opened on the building’s 21st floor and when its contents were seen, it was “alarming to all involved.” The memo was attributed to Suzanne Scott, CEO of Fox News Media:
Following the 2001 attacks, envelopes containing threatening letters and powdered anthrax spores began appearing in U.S. mail. Five Americans were killed and 17 were sickened in what the FBI called “the worst biological attacks in U.S. history.”
