NYPD Look Into Financial District Bomb Threats

2008_07_bomb2.jpgNY1 reports that the NYPD is looking into possible bomb threats, as three people "received post cards warning of bombings in the Financial District" on Friday. And the cards read, "You're invited to a party so put on a happy face...Bombs! Bombs! Bombs! Lower Manhattan, July, August, September," and are signed "New York Jihad." Investigators do not think there is "actual terrorist activity" but are looking into the cards which seem to be printed from desktop computer at home.

if it's a laser printer, it can be tracked.

"which seem to be printed from desktop computer at home."
