6 People Being Treated After Exposure to Substance
Click Here to Listen to our report at 3
Children's Hospital says its emergency room is back open. Haz mat crews are at the hospital. A spokeswoman, Jackie Gauger, says a patient came to the hospital today after coming in contact with an unknown substance.
That patient and their mother were both sick. Four other people at the hospital are now also being treated.
Gauger wasn't sure exactly why Haz Mat teams responded to the hospital. There were reports that a substance in a backpack is making people sick.
It appears this case is somehow related to Meonomonee Falls High School, but it's not clear yet how. Calls to the high school were not immedeately returned.

The radio station is getting defensive and is dropping new information as they get it.
The “patient” is reported to be a juvenile. There are teams in the Hazmat “moonsuits” at Children’s Hospital. Menomonee Falls authorites have some sort of presence at the High School that is somehow related to the hazmat deal at the hospital.
My Preliminary Assesment,
1 - Zany High School Prank Gone Bad.
2 - Scanner Boy Intern at the radio station messed up big time.

Sounds like a lot of the lunches brought to school in backpacks back when I was in high school. My cooking is always potentially hazardous.

What are the odds that mama got sick stressing over her child, and the others got sick because they saw two people get sick at the same time?
