N.H. Democratic Party Office Still Closed After Suspicious Package Found

The New Hampshire Democratic Party office remains closed as authorities investigate a suspicious package found there.

At least three employees were in the Concord building when the package was found Monday afternoon. Police say one was checked for possible exposure to a substance in the package, but no injuries were reported.

The party's spokeswoman said Tuesday that all staff are doing fine, but the building remains closed. Police said they expect to release more information later Tuesday.

Traffic was diverted away from the area Monday night as police, fire crews, a state hazmat team and federal authorities investigated.
