The package has markings similar to the pipe bomb packages recently mailed nationwide to top Democrats, the sources said.
The FBI said in a press release yesterday that it was possible that additional packages were mailed to other locations. They urged the public to "remain vigilant and not touch, move or handle any suspicious or unknown packages."
Like most of the other packages, the return address was that of Democratic US Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Florida, the sources said. There is no information to suggest she sent the packages.
And, just as the other packages, the one sent to De Niro had six American-flag stamps arrayed in two rows. No postmark is visible on the front of the De Niro package, similar to some of the others, the sources said.
None of the bombs in the packages have detonated and no one was injured.
The address, 375 Greenwich St., matches that of Tribeca Enterprises, De Niro's film and television production company and organizer of the Tribeca Film festival. The site also contains De Niro's Tribeca Grill restaurant.
De Niro is a vocal critic of President Donald Trump.
At June's Tony Awards, De Niro went off-script while introducing a performance by Bruce Springsteen to curse Trump.Latest
