Incident At Wilson, NC Field Office

An e-mail that was just forwarded to me:

The Wilson, NC office was closed at approximately 10:15 AM on Tuesday, December 11, 2007. A claimant brought an appeals package into the office for his recently denied disability claim. When the Service Representative opened the package at the front desk, a white powder was spilled into the air and surrounding area. The claimant was somewhat vague in explaining the origin of the white powder. The police were called and they have shut down the office until they can determine the chemical make-up of the powder. They are currently interviewing the claimant.
