Though New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Wednesday that an explosive device had been sent to his office after a spate of bombs targeting at least six high-profile liberal figures, the NYPD says he wasn't a target.

“A device has been sent to my office in Manhattan, which we were just informed about,” Cuomo said at a joint press conference Wednesday outside CNN headquarters, where a bomb was found. “That device is also being handled.”

In a subsequent statement, the NYPD denied that Cuomo or his office had been targeted.

According to a Cuomo spokesperson, the "suspicious package" actually contained information files on the Proud Boys, a hate group that recently started a violent brawl in upper Manhattan.

Cuomo’s bizarre claim came after both his office and his brother, CNN's Chris Cuomo, denied media reports that a suspicious package had been sent to his office.

A string of prominent Democrats — including Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and possibly Debbie Wasserman Schultz — have been targeted on Wednesday by explosive devices sent through the mail. CNN also evacuated its headquarters in New York City after a bomb addressed to former CIA Director John Brennan, a CNN contributor, was found in its mailroom. Earlier this week, a bomb was discovered in billionaire liberal activist George Soros’ mailbox.

The White House has condemned the attempted attacks.

"We condemn the attempted violent attacks recently made against President Obama, President Clinton, Secretary Clinton, and other public figures," White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement. "These terrorizing acts are despicable, and anyone responsible will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law."
