Another lawsuit filed over North Toledo chemical leak
Another lawsuit been filed in the aftermath of last month’s airborne chemical leak from MC Tank Transport in North Toledo. The latest case involves eight plaintiffs of record. Molly A. Ebraheim, an attorney representing them, said more are likely to be added as part of an amended complaint. “We are not bringing it as a class action. We are bringing it as a multi-plaintiff claims case,” she said. “Our clients are just choosing to bring their own individual claims.” Ms. Ebraheim is one of three attorneys in the Maumee office of Nurenberg, Paris, Heller & McCarthy Co. who are working on that case. A 19-page complaint they filed in Lucas County Common Pleas Court states that each of their clients “suffered harm different in kind from that suffered by the general public, including displacement costs, lost wages, medical treatment, and property impacts.” The plaintiffs are Larry Sanchez, Kenyada Hooks, Kapreece Sims, Eric Walker, Bryan Smith, Felix Abalos, Michael Sims, and Timothy Myers. All are from Toledo except Michael Sims, who lives in Sacramento, and Mr. Myers, who lives in Eastlake, Ohio.

UT to complete Swan Creek project with Great Lakes Commission grant
The University of Toledo has received another $897,557 from the Ann Arbor-based Great Lakes Commission to finish a nearly $1.2 million restoration project along Swan Creek on land the university owns north of its Health Science campus. University officials said crews will soon begin clearing trees and building an access route to reach 1,700 linear feet of the creek. The route runs through the property of neighboring ALRO Steel, which has granted access. Work along that section of Swan Creek began in 2023 after the commission allocated $242,000. The project is a small part of a much larger effort to restore the Maumee River, the Ottawa River, Swan Creek, and other Toledo-area waterways as part of a U.S.-Canada agreement made in 1987 to improve 43 areas of concern across the Great Lakes region.
