Dozens Sickened At Downtown Building

Investigators Look For Cause

 

POSTED: 1:05 pm EDT September 1, 2004
Officials say several dozen people have been sickened in a downtown office building.

D.C. Fire and Emergency Medical Services spokesman Alan Etter said this is being treated as what he calls a "mass casualty" incident.

Ambulances are lining up in the area around 1990 I Street, Northwest, and a triage area is being set up at nearby Murrow Park.

 

There's no immediate word on what the problem is.

No cable channel is on it? How serious can it be if it's not on CNN, MSNBC, or Fox?

Hopefully false alarm. No one is covering. MSNBC just broke in with breaking news that John Kerry served in Viatnam.
