Reward for anthrax threat

Federal and local law enforcement agencies are offering a $20,000 reward for information about a 2005 anthrax hoax at the Savannah River Site, across the river in South Carolina. The FBI, U.S. Postal Inspection Service and the Columbia County Sheriff's Office issued the reward offer Tuesday. The agencies hope to learn who was responsible for the hoax against officials at the nuclear site and the U.S. Department of Energy.
