Crisis in a can sparks costly emergency response in Ohio
A five gallon can of Butyl Oxidtol fell from a pickup in Florence Township. Deputies, firefighters, and a hazardous materials team sealed off Route 60 for about three hours. No evacuations occurred. The solvent, ethylene glycol monobutyl ether, is mildly toxic and flammable. Officials questioned the necessity of the red alert, suggesting it may have been a training exercise rather than a real threat.
