The office of Arizona GOP Senate candidate Kari Lake was placed on lockdown on Tuesday after a campaign staffer opened a package containing a 'suspicious' substance. According to a campaign spokesperson, an intern at the campaign's Phoenix office discovered an envelope with a suspicious substance and a note that read 'caution anthrax.'
Upon finding the package, the campaign immediately contacted authorities, leading to a response from multiple law enforcement agencies and a hazmat team. While the substance has not been confirmed to be anthrax, it is currently undergoing testing to determine its nature.
