North Rhine-Westphalia: Envelope with white powder triggers fire service

Bedburg-Hau (dpa / lnw) - White powder in an envelope led to a police and fire brigade operation in Bedburg-Hau on the Lower Rhine. The substance was discovered in a doctor's office on Friday afternoon, said a police spokeswoman. The envelope was more or less "lying on the counter". As a result, the police were alerted - and then the fire brigade. The area had been cordoned off. On Friday evening, the examination of the powder was not yet complete.
