Cornstarch in Letter to Donald Trump Jr. Causes Scare
Medical personnel from the Fire Department, after initially being called to stand by in case they were needed, took Ms. Haydon, Ms. Trump
and a third person to NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center as a precaution.
Donald Trump Jr.’s wife and mother-in-law were hospitalized as a precaution on Monday morning after opening an envelope containing a white powdery substance
that investigators later determined was cornstarch and was not hazardous, police officials said.
They called 911, and the New York Police Department
and Fire Department responded to the apartment, on East 54th Street in the Sutton Place neighborhood.
The letter, addressed to Donald Trump Jr., was sent to the Manhattan apartment of his mother-in-law, Bonnie Haydon, the officials said.
