Late Saturday night, LAPD's bomb squad arrived to Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin's Bel-Air home. They were there to determine if a mysterious gift wrapped package was dangerous. Upon close inspection it turned out that there was nothing too dangerous inside the package. Instead, the high ranking US Government official was sent a box of manure.
According to The New York Post, Mnuchin was sent horse manure from "the American people." There was also reportedly a Christmas card that mentioned Trump and the recently passed tax bill.
Watch the footage of the ordeal below.
