A 43 year old man from the western U.S. state of Washington is under arrest for allegedly sending several suspicious packages to U.S. military and intelligence installations in the Washington, D.C. area.

The FBI said Thanh Cong Phan was arrested at his house in Everett, Washington.

Phan's motive has not been determined, but the FBI said there was no connection to terrorism.

More than a half dozen packages were shipped to several military bases in the Washington area and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).

Court records show that Phan, who has raised concerns over his mental health in the past, has had a couple of run-ins with law enforcement dating back to his teen years.

一名43岁的男子在美国西部的华盛顿州被逮捕。他被指向首都华盛顿的军队和情报设施寄送了若干可疑邮包。

美国联邦调查局说，这位名叫潘申成（Thanh Cong Phan，音译）的华盛顿州埃弗雷特（Everett）居民在他的家中被捕。

潘申成的作案动机还没有查明，但是联调局说，与恐怖主义无关。

至少六七个邮包被寄送到首都华盛顿地区的几个军事基地和中央情报局。

法庭记录显示，潘申成曾经对他自己的精神状况感到担心，青少年时期也曾几次因触犯法律而被执法部门记录在案。
