Hazardous material crews are looking for the source of an
odor that prompted evacuation of the science building at Mount St. Mary's
University in Emmitsburg.
School spokesman Christian Kendzierski (ken-ZER'-skee) says the smell of a solvent was noticed on several floors of the Coad Science Building at about 3:50 p.m. Tuesday.
The three-story building was evacuated late Tuesday afternoon. He says he's not aware of any injuries.
He says the building houses lecture halls, classrooms and laboratories.
Public safety workers are ventilating the building.
