Evacuation at Maxwell Frost’s Orlando Office Following Suspicious Package Reports

The office of U.S. Representative Maxwell Frost in Orlando was evacuated on Friday after receiving a suspicious package, which is similar to packages reported at various congressional offices nationwide. Frost confirmed the evacuation, stating, “Today, my office received a suspicious package matching those reported by other offices across the country. As a precaution, our office has been evacuated.” U.S. Capitol Police and Orlando Police are responding to the situation. Frost assured that he and his team are safe and are cooperating with law enforcement during the assessment.

In a related situation, Rep. Darren Soto’s office received an envelope containing a suspicious substance, which was intercepted by local law enforcement after Frost’s team notified them to monitor incoming mail. Soto expressed relief that no injuries occurred among his staff. Both offices are collaborating with law enforcement agencies on this investigation. Authorities have yet to determine if these incidents are linked to other suspicious mailings reported across the country.
