Explosive Package Found At German Finance Ministry: Reuters

A suspicious package containing explosives was found Wednesday at the German finance ministry in Berlin, according to Reuters. The package was found in the mail-handling area of the building, but wasn't opened. "The first investigation results show that the package contained a so-called explosives mixture, which is frequently used to produce pyrotechnics. It was designed to cause considerable injuries when the package was opened," police said in a statement, according to the report.
