Davis office receives threatening e-mail

Rep. Danny Davis (D-Ill.) says he was threatened in an e-mail message received by his office on Sunday.

Davis said Sunday that an aide received an e-mail from a known Chicago local that said "Danny Davis is next," a day after Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.) was shot in the head at an event in Tucson, Ariz, according to an item on the Chicago Tribune's website.

"You know some things are cranks, some things are pranks. Some things you simply don't know about, but I think in this climate it pays to be as cautionary as one can be," he told the Tribune.
