Houston, TX - Friday, October 14, 2005 - Anthrax Scare At Reliant Stadium
Houston Texans football practice was delayed nearly two hours today after a
player reported finding an unknown white powdery substance on the practice
field. The Texans head coach immediately suspended practice while police
and federal investigators were called to investigate. After a complete
analysis, FBI forensic experts determined that the white substance unknown
to the players was the goal line. Practice was resumed after special agents
decided the team was unlikely to encounter the substance again.
