The United Nations building in New York City was closed for a few hours, today because of a suspicious odor in the air.
A possible terrorist attack was feared. Well there was no attack. That bad smell was coming from a sewage backup in the nearby East River. The stench was nontoxic.
The sewage backup delayed hearings on human rights resolutions.
Some New Yorkers reportedly thought that the "bad smell" was coming from the U.N. Diplomats.
