Hialeah, Florida-AP -- Florida officials say five people have been hospitalized after opening envelopes containing a mysterious white powder. Officials with the Hialeah Fire-Rescue Department in suburban Miami say one person at an apartment was taken to the hospital today after opening a manila envelope. Yesterday, four people at a house 20 blocks away were exposed to an apparently identical powder mailed in a manila envelope. They contacted authorities today and were hospitalized. Three of them are being treated for low-grade fevers.
