Becca Balint

BURLINGTON, Vt. (WCAX) - Authorities are investigating a suspicious letter sent to the Vermont offices of Congresswoman Becca Balint.

Balint says the Postal Inspection Service intercepted a letter that they think may contain a suspicious substance. She says her team is cooperating with authorities as they test the substance.

A number of local and federal government offices last week received letters containing a white powder.

The FBI said they are helping investigate their origins.
