Chemical Release Causes Partial Evacuation

Yesterday afternoon, in Saint Lucas, authorities contained two anhydrous ammonia tanks that broke loose from the truck that was towing them. The tanks overturned around 11:30 a.m. in a downtown parking lot and a valve broke, releasing the fertilizer.
No one was hurt and about 40 people were temporarily evacuated.
