Unknown substance sickens 8, forces closure of medical facility
Multiple people were stricken by an unknown gas at a central Toledo medical facility Thursday. Just before 9 a.m., emergency crews responded to the Old West End Community Health Center at 2244 Collingwood Blvd. for a report of a person having difficulty breathing, fire officials said. Emergency crews ruled out a natural gas leak. As more people began reporting feeling unwell, the Toledo Fire & Rescue Department evacuated the building and collected air samples to identify the contaminant. Area hospitals were put on notice about a possible mass-casualty event. In the end, three people were taken to area hospitals with minor injuries, fire officials said. Five other people were evaluated on scene and will follow up with their primary care physicians, if necessary. The building was closed most of the day while TFRD officials tried to identify the source of the contaminant and ventilate the building. They subsequently released the building late in the afternoon after the odor had dissipated.
