FBI no longer investigating threat to Rep. Baird

The FBI is no longer investigating a threat against Rep. Brian Baird.

The Associated Press

VANCOUVER, Wash. —

The FBI is no longer investigating a threat against Rep. Brian Baird.

A spokeswoman for the agency, Lindsay Godwin, told The Vancouver Columbian that agents did not feel a phone message left at Baird's D.C. office was serious. She said Tuesday the FBI has closed its case.

On Monday, Capitol Police told The Columbian the FBI was handling the investigation.

Baird's spokeswoman, Kelly Love, says he has no comment.

During the health care debate in August the Vancouver Democrat said on MSNBC that the disruptions at town hall meetings reminded him of the atmosphere that led to the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing.

Four days later someone left the message that there was a Ryder truck with his name on it.
