Yesterday afternoon, emergency services responded to a potential terrorist threat at the offices of Ireland’s Gay and Lesbian Equality Network (GLEN), reports the Irish Examiner.

It’s believed that an envelope containing blue powder and bearing the word “goodbye” was delivered to GLEN’s Dublin offices. A GLEN spokesperson said staff were told to wait inside the building for the arrival of the bomb squad to inspect the package.

Several Fire Brigade units attended the scene. The Army Bomb Squad ruled out any danger about two hours later.
