We’ve received reports that the New York Times building has received some sort of terrorist threat. Apparently a white powder has been sent to somebody at the Time’s editorial desk.
The building houses the firms of Covington & Burling and Goodwin Procter, among others.
One tipster reports that the place is crawling with police officers.
Skills That Set Firms Apart
Legal expertise alone isn’t enough. Today’s most successful firms invest in developing the skills that drive collaboration, leadership, and business growth. Our on-demand, customizable training modules deliver practical, high-impact learning for attorneys and staff—when and where they need it.
Building security just sent around an email informing workers that they can leave via the freight elevator, but cannot come back if they do. While the email told people “there is no need to panic,” that has predictably caused some amount of panic.
Safety first people. The powdered substance could be talcum, but why take the risk?
We hope everybody is safe.
