CO Scare In Ayersville

Two workers are hurt, two dozen others evacuated after an apparent workplace accident at the Ayersville school building. Crews were involved in an asbestos removal project when officials say equipment used to provide fresh air during the operation, failed. Officials suspect carbon monoxide levels in the area got too high and the two workers became ill, prompting the evacuation. A hazmat team was brought in after it was determined the workers were not properly cleaned up after being in contact with the asbestos. Soon after, the all clear was given and work resumed.
