CENTENNIAL, Colo. (AP) -- Authorities say a threatening letter containing an unidentified white powder was sent to a John McCain campaign office in the Denver suburb of Centennial, and a similar letter was sent to a McCain office in Manchester, N.H.

A hazardous materials team was trying to determine if the powder found in Colorado is harmful.

It wasn't immediately known if the New Hampshire letter also contained a powder, said Jeff Sadosky, a spokesman with McCain's national campaign office in Arlington, Va.

The heist was caught on tape by surveillance cameras.

The robbery happened Sunday at the doughnut store at 4400 NW 39. The only worker in the store, Cheryl Powell, 45, said a man walked into the store about 9:30 p.m. wearing the mask and carrying a gun and crowbar, according to a police report.

The robber used the crowbar to open two cash registers and the office in the back of the store, the report stated. Powell ran out of the store while he was in the back.
