An explosive device was found Monday in a mailbox at the New York residence of George Soros, the liberal philanthropist and target of far-right, nationalist groups, according to authorities.
The Bedford Police Department said a suspicious package was discovered Monday afternoon by an employee of the residence. Police didnt specify who owned the home, but town records show that it is co-owned by Soros Fund Management LLC, a family office operated by Soros. Inside the package was what appeared to be an explosive device, police said. The employee placed the material in a wooded area and notified authorities at 3:45 p.m. Monday.
Authorities in Bedford, N.Y. which includes the hamlet of Katonah, where the residence is located said an extensive investigation commenced," also involving the Westchester County Police Department, the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The case has since been turned over to the FBIs Joint Terrorism Task Force. The FBIs New York office said in a tweet late Monday that it was conducting an investigation, and that there was no threat to public safety.
