North Logan Ricin Incident Update:


The 85th Civil Support Team is finishing up the sampling portion of the operation. The team has taken samples from all areas of the structure. The initial environmental survey shows no signs of ricin in the upper levels of the structure, the results of the basement samples will determine the next actions and the amount of time the investigation is expected to take. Units remain on scene in support of that effort.

During an interview with the patient earlier today, she indicated she got the idea to process ricin from an internet search, there is no reason to believe that the idea came from or is associated with a television show.
