'Questionable Shipments' Found On UPS Planes In Newark, Philadelphia

UPDATE: While no explosives have been identified, officials have now revealed that all the packages being investigated this morning in Newark and Philadelphia originated from “a specific address in Yemen” that is also connected to the device found in the U.K. yesterday.
