US President Donald
Trump's daughter-in-law Vanessa was taken to a New York hospital Monday
as a precaution after a "suspicious package" containing an unidentified
powder arrived at her home, police said.
The letter was sent to Donald Trump Jr, the president's eldest son, and contained a mysterious substance, according to police.
"The powder was tested and was found to be not hazardous," a spokeswoman told AFP.
US media had reported the letter contained white powder.
The Secret Service said "an active
investigation" was underway of the "suspicious package addressed to one
of our protectees received today in New York."
NBC News said Vanessa Trump, a mother
of five, was taken to New York Presbyterian-Weill Cornell Medical Center
strictly as a precaution, saying there was no indication that anyone
suffered any injuries and no sign that the substance was dangerous.
Her husband and brother-in-law Eric
Trump both live in New York and run the family real-estate business,
taking over after their father took office in January 2017.
