A package addressed to CNN headquarters in Atlanta has been seized at a mailing facility after raising suspicions. It's unclear if it is related to mail bombs sent to the news outlet and several politicians last week.


"This morning, another suspicious package addressed to CNN was intercepted at an Atlanta post office. There is no imminent danger to the CNN Center. All mail, at all CNN domestic bureaus, is being screened at off-site facilities as of last Wednesday, so this package would NOT have come directly to the CNN Center, even if it hadn't been intercepted first," CNN said in a statement.
Two other packages addressed to CNN have also turned out to be parcel bombs. The first package arrived on Wednesday morning, making it to the mailroom at Time Warner Center which is home to CNN's offices in New York City. That package was addressed to ex-CIA director John Brennan, who actually works for NBC - not CNN.

Prominent Democrats also received explosive parcels around the same time, including ex-US President Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, former US Attorney General Eric Holder, and more. Packages were also addressed to billionaire donors Tom Steyer and George Soros.

The second package was addressed to CNN contributor James Clapper, who is also the former director of US National Intelligence. The package was found at a post office on Friday morning, only six blocks away from the Time Warner Center. The two packages prompted the new offsite mail testing protocol.

A 56-year-old suspect named Cesar Sayoc is due in court today over last week's letter bombs. If this package is confirmed to be related, it will be the 15th parcel bomb in less than a week.
