Huntsville International Ariport Employee Burned By Foriegn White Substance
HUNTSVILLE-- Decatur Fire and Rescue and Huntsville HAZMAT teams are currently investigating a possible chemical attack that allegedly took place within the last few hours.
According to a Decatur Fire and Rescue official, a toll booth worker for Huntsville International Airport is currently receiving treatment for chemical burns she received when a patron handed her some money with a foriegn white substance on it.
According to the victim she didn't notify officials, but when she felt a burning sensation on her hands and arms, her husband took her to Decatur General Hospital. When she told hospital officials about the situation, they called Huntsville HAZMAT crews to investigate the situation.
Huntsville HAZMAT teams took samples of the substance from the toll booth at Huntsville International Airport, however there was barely enough of the substance left to be able to test. So crews are currently taking them from the victim at Decatur General Hospital as well.
