45 Homeless Displaced In Light House Hazmat Incident
BALTIMORE (AP) — Fire officials in Maryland say the Light House homeless shelter was evacuated last week after a chemical was poured down a drain.
The Baltimore Sun reports that an Annapolis fire statement says Annapolis and Anne Arundel County fire departments were dispatched to The Light House homeless prevention support center for a report of a chemical smell coming through the vents March 3.
Officials say the source of the odor was coming from a utility room and believed to be something poured down the drain.
No injuries were reported to occupants or fire personnel.
