Police are investigating after a suspicious package was found at the U.S. Attorney’s office in downtown Lexington Wednesday morning.
The package was found at Vine and Mill Street. The U.S. Attorney’s office was contacted around 10 a.m. because of a suspicious “briefcase” that had been stuffed into a mailbox on Vine near Mill.
