Friday, November 21, 2008
WHITSETT - Deputies don't plan to pursue charges in connection with a mysterious powder that arrived at a woman's home by mail Wednesday.
The powder - ground chickpeas, according to the Guilford County Hazardous Materials Team - is not dangerous and did not come with any threat, according to the sheriff's office.
The powder came in an envelope without a return address but had a New Jersey postmark, said Detective D.K. Jones.
Kellie Rollins of 6815 Championship Drive received two letters from New Jersey on Wednesday.
"Neither one of the letters made any bodily threats to the lady," Jones said. "We don't have a violation of law."
