NEW YORK (AP) — The New York Police Department is investigating alleged threats sent to CNN host Don Lemon.
Police on Thursday said Lemon, who is black, had reported receiving “numerous threatening and anti-black messages sent to his Twitter account from an unknown individual.”
Police say the alleged harassment against the 51-year-old host was reported on Wednesday.
A message seeking comment from CNN was not immediately returned.
There have been no arrests.
