An NYPD spokesperson told The Hill that the emergency service unit as well as bomb squad were deployed to the scene.

A spokesperson added, "As of right now, police are working at the post office facility on 52nd street that discovered a suspicious package that closely resembled others that were sent across the country in recent days."

What's going on in Miami?

On Thursday, Miami-Dade police said that they were helping federal partners investigate a U.S. Postal Service mail facility in Opa-locka, Florida.

A K-9 unit and bomb squad were also reportedly involved in the investigation.

In a statement, FBI Director Christopher Wray said, “This investigation is of the highest priority for the FBI. We have committed the full strength of the FBI’s resources and, together with our partners on our Joint Terrorism Task Forces, we will continue to work to identify and arrest whoever is responsible for sending these packages.”

A manhunt is underway to find the person behind the packages.

During a Thursday news conference in New York City, NYPD Commissioner James P. O'Neill said that all hands are on deck.

“We are investigating all of this with great precision and I can say with certainty that we will identify and arrest a person or people responsible for these acts,” O’Neill said.

He also added that the suspicious devices are being treated as live devices.

“This is something that should be taken seriously,” he added.
