Niagara County Sheriff's deputies responded to a Sunset Drive, Town of Lockport address around 9 a.m. for a report of a suspicious package.

According to the couple that filed the complaint, a suspicious envelop was located inside of their mailbox. The front of the envelop read "To: The Best Sister in Law in the World :) From: Bob." Inside of the envelop was a zip lock bag containing a partial piece of meat or poultry.

The couple advised patrol that they don't know anyone named Bob and neither has had any issues with family members. The male half of the couple had checked the mailbox at approximately 4 a.m. when looking for his newspaper and didn't see the suspicious envelop inside the mailbox at that time. It appears that an unknown person placed the envelop inside of the mailbox between 4 a.m. and 9 a.m.

The complainants don't believe the envelop was meant for them, but wanted to report the incident to NCSO. The envelop and contents were discarded by the couple after filing the report with patrol. They will contact NSCO with any further concerns regarding suspicious packages or activity.
