Joint Base Andrews illnesses reported after ‘suspicious package’ delivered.

CNN reported late Thursday that several people at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland fell ill and were receiving medical treatment after a “suspicious package” was delivered to the military base outside Washington, D.C.
A building on the base — where President Trump frequently travels on official business — was evacuated after someone opened the package, Joint Base Andrews told CNN in a statement.
“Joint Base Andrews first responders were dispatched to the scene, determined there were no immediate threats, and the scene was turned over to the Office of Special Investigations,” the statement read. “The investigation is currently ongoing.”
Several people were transported to Malcolm Grove Medical Center on base after the package was opened. Two sources familiar with the investigation told CNN that the package contained an unknown white powder and political propaganda.
The Hill has reached out to Joint Base Andrews for comment.
