Columbus Station Evacuated Due to Anthrax Scare (Updated)

Tense moments at WSYX in Columbus as white powder spilled out of an envelope that was sent to the station.

The station has been evacuated on the chance that the powder turns out to be anthrax. 

The newsroom, normally very busy this time of day is right now a ghost town right now.

The fire department is on the scene investigating. 

Looks like WSYX has their lead story for tonight.

That is...when they get back in the building. 

Update: We also hear that the Columbus are is also under a Tornado watch right now as well. Can't call this one a slow news day.
