(Reuters) - An actress has been arrested on suspicion of sending ricin-laced letters to President Barack Obama and New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney's Office in the eastern district of Texas said on Friday.

The woman is Shannon Rogers Guess Richardson, of New Boston, Texas, who had previously told FBI officials that her husband was responsible for sending the letters, said Davilyn Walston, the spokeswoman.

The letters, which were anonymous and sent last month, referenced the debate on gun control. A third letter, also containing ricin was sent to the director of Mayors Against Illegal Guns, a group founded by Bloomberg that lobbies for stricter gun laws.
