The NYPD bomb squad rushed to the Seventh Avenue office building Thursday only to discover a box of toys, police said.

CHELSEA, NY — A suspicious package at Ivanka Trump's Chelsea office building turned out to be a false alarm filled with toys, police said.
The NYPD's bomb squad rushed to the Seventh Avenue office building at 28th Street at about 3:40 p.m. But after inspecting the parcel — which had no postage — officers discovered that it only contained children's toys, a police spokeswoman said.
The NYPD is on heightened alert after a spate of explosives were mailed to prominent Democrats in New York City and across the country last week.
