Did you get this one on the mercury?


Mercury spill shuts down post office

CLINTON, Iowa An investigation is under way into a mercury spill at the post office in Clinton, which lead to an evacuation.

Officials say a package delivered to a house yesterday was leaking, spilling a small amount of mercury in the home, the post office and back of a mail truck.

The post office and house were evacuated for several hours as a haz-mat crew cleaned up the spill. The mail truck was secured.

No one was hurt.
