Possible new evidence prompts FBI to re-open Clinton e-mail probe

FBI Director James Comey said Friday that the bureau has re-opened its investigation of Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's use of a private e-mail server during her 2009-2013 tenure as U.S. secretary of state.


"In connection with an unrelated case, the FBI has learned of the existence of e-mails that appear pertinent to the investigation," Comey said in a letter to the chairmen of several congressional committees.

"I am writing to inform you that the investigative team briefed me on this yesterday, and I agreed that the FBI should take appropriate investigative steps designed to allow investigators to review these emails to determine whether they contain classified information, as well as to assess their importance to our investigation," the director continued.

The FBI "cannot yet assess whether or not this material may be significant," Comey told the committee chairman.
