YFD works hard at EMU

From my news feed just a bit ago, as reported in the AAN, “Ypsilanti firefighters have a busy night:”

It began at 6:42 p.m. when firefighters were called to Dining Commons 3 at Eastern Michigan University when three student workers experienced breathing problems after mixing chemicals in a bucket that caused intense fumes, according to Capt. Michelle Stanbury. The three were taken to St. Joseph Mercy Hospital for treatment.

At 8:35 p.m., firefighters were called back to EMU, this time to Phelps Hall, where they rescued five people from a stalled elevator. There were no medical issues, as they’d been there just 15 to 20 minutes, Stanbury said.
