Youth Hockey Players Fall Ill At Detroit-Area Rink
TAYLOR, Mich. (AP) — Authorities say more than 20 high school-aged hockey players got sick while at a suburban Detroit rink for a tournament.
The Taylor Fire Department says the youth hockey players from different teams were in a locker room at the Taylor Sportsplex in Taylor on Sunday night when some began vomiting.
Some were taken for treatment by ambulance and others were taken by private vehicles to area hospitals. The department says illnesses only were reported by those in the locker room.
The building was shut down so air and water tests could be performed. The source of the problem was under investigation.
