Thousands of people many dressed as foxes, bears, pandas, and other fuzzy creatures were evacuated from a suburban Chicago hotel early Sunday morning after a chemical leak that police are investigating as a criminal act.
The leak of a chlorine-containing gas in the Hyatt O'Hare Regency Hotel sent 19 people to the hospital, including several attendees at the 15th annual "Midwest FurFest," an animal fandom convention. The hospitalized individuals "complained of nausea and dizziness," the Midwest FurFest organizers explained on their website.
"The Rosemont Police Department determined this was a criminal act and began investigating it as such," the Midwest FurFest statement said.

You’re right about the suits. We used to think it was the tattooed bikers. How wrong we were. If only they were in office. We’d be a hell of a lot better off.
google “yiffing”.
The only thing worse than a Cheshire is people that make Fluttershy cry. People that make Fluttershy cry need to, by force of law, spend time in Paradise Falls or caged up in the Germantown PD with large unsexed Green dudes.
Only then will Fluttershy not cry anymore.
No justice, no peace.
I foolishly took your ‘advice’ and looked that cra* up.
How do people even know about this stuff?!
This incident is literally in my backyard. Wondering what the motive was, or if it’s a dry run type of thing. There are so many conventions in Rosemont as well as a new casino which technically isn’t in Rosemont, but everyone knows it’s run by the Rosemont ‘boys’.
I am so glad that I am not young now. I am so concerned about the future of our children.
Pretty sure making Fluttershy cry is a crime in all 57 states.
Only one way to know for sure.
