WASHINGTON (AP) — There's apparently no link between the bombing of an Army recruiting station in New York's Times Square and letters sent to Congress saying "We did it," law enforcement officials said Friday.
The lengthy anti-war letters — which arrived with photos of a man standing in front of the recruiting office before it was damaged — contained no threats and were sent to as many as 100 members of Congress, said three law enforcement officials.
One of the law enforcement officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation in New York is continuing, called it an "incredibly unbelievable coincidence."
Authorities on Thursday questioned the Los Angeles area man who sent the letters but found his mailings to be unrelated to the bombing and did not expect to bring any charges, the officials said.
Democratic lawmakers on Capitol Hill were startled to receive the letters in their office mail Thursday afternoon, just hours after the early morning New York bombing, and turned them over to the Capitol Police.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Law enforcement officials say there is no connection between a letter to dozens of Congress members bearing the words "We did it" and the bombing of an Army recruiting station in New York.
Law officers have questioned the letter writer in the Los Angeles area and don't expect to bring any charges against him, three law enforcement officials told The Associated Press. The writer is an anti-war activist who sent as many as 100 letters — including a photograph of a man standing in front of the Times Square office — to Congress members.
"It was just an incredibly unbelievable coincidence," said one of the law enforcement officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation in New York is continuing.
