12 Hospitalized After Chemical Spill at Willy Wonka Candy Factory [View all]
Workers were making Nerds when a 5-gallon container of lithium chloride spilled
“It’s a product used in, I believe, the humidifying system here,” Itasca deputy fire chief John Radzinski said.
By 6 a.m., several of the employees had been treated and released at area hospitals. All are expected to be okay, officials said.
Information on how the spill happened has not been released. Radzinski said the hazmat response was “in an abundance of caution.”
