All we know at this time is, some sort of white powder fell out of a standard-sized envelope.

The facility has not been evacuated, there are no injuries to report, and operations are said to be continuing as normal.

Emergency crews are on the scene. We will have more as soon as we learn it.

these all make me wonder about the powders that don't fall out of the envelopes at the post offices, are they all going to be opened up tomorrow? (if there's more that is)
