Luckily, as reported by E! News, the substance was not dangerous but cops believe the letter originated from Europe. Officer Karen Rayner of LAPD media relations told E! News, "The Major Crimes unit is handling the investigation." She added, "The letter did contain some threats directed at Craig Ferguson. They will be working with the FBI and our counterparts in Europe to investigate the crime."
