6 US personnel quarantined over mail scare

The US Embassy in Turkey says six US army post office personnel have been quarantined after handling a package containing a powdery substance at Istanbul's main airport.

 

US Embassy Spokeswoman Deborah Guido says Friday the six were quarantined pending laboratory results to determine whether the powder is a dangerous substance, such as anthrax. The results are expected Saturday. The personnel deliver US diplomatic mail in Turkey. (AP)
