Multiple U.S. House and Senate Democrats from Connecticut including the ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee said Thursday they were the targets of bomb threats. This morning, I was notified of a bomb threat targeting my home where I was celebrating Thanksgiving with my family," top Intelligence Committee Democrat Jim Himes (D-Conn.) said in a statement. Himes said that after a "swift and thorough response" from the Capitol Police and Greenwich and Stamford police departments,"no evidence of a bomb was found." Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) also had his home targeted by a bomb threat on Thursday morning in what "appears to be part of a coordinated effort involving multiple members of Congress and public figures," his spokesperson said. Rep. Jahana Hayes (D-Conn.) said in a statement she was notified Thursday morning by her local police chief of "a threatening email stating a pipe bomb had been placed in the mailbox at my home." |
