Security scare in US Congress
WASHINGTON - THE US House of Representatives chamber was briefly evacuated on Monday as a precaution after a suspicious but ultimately harmless powder was found on the floor, according the US Capitol Police.
'Just before noon, we discovered a powdery substance on the floor of the House,' said a spokesman, Sergeant Kimberly Schneider.
'The only people in there at the time were a few House pages, who were evacuated out of an abundance of caution,' and the 'immediate area' was secured while the powder was tested, she told AFP by telephone.
Shortly before 1pm (1700 GMT, 1am Singapore time), Sgt Schneider reported by e-mail: 'All clear, nothing hazardous found.'
In the weeks following the Sept 11, 2001 terrorist strikes, envelopes containing anthrax spores were mailed to the offices of two Democratic senators, as well as some major media outlets. -- AFP
