Saturday, September 11, 2010

One person suffered breathing problems after an ammonia leak at a Pasadena plant.

Police say there was a minor leak at Chemquest on Bay Area Boulevard near Red Bluff this morning. The leak was capped quickly, and police say there was no shelter in place issued. A worker at a plant across the street apparently got sick when he inhaled the fumes.

Investigators are looking into the cause of the leak.
