The security investigator for Comcast told police blue powder was released from an envelope when it was opened, the report indicated. The investigator told police there was a blank sheet of paper inside the envelope and the worker told the investigator it looked like blue glitter.

Plymouth Township firefighters examined the substance and called HAZMAT, which advised employees to wash their hands with soap and throw away the package.
