Mysterious Odor Sends Five to Hospital in Glenmoore
GLENMOORE, PA — Chester County officials reported that a group of five people, including four first responders, fell ill after encountering an unusual odor in a Glenmoore home late Thursday. The responders were initially called to the scene to assist a resident who had fallen, but they, along with the individual in need of medical attention, began to feel unwell. Although the county Hazmat team inspected the premises and found no alarming substances, the cause of the odor remains unclear. While the four responders have since been discharged from the hospital, officials have not provided an update on the original patient’s condition. State police are continuing their investigation to determine what may have caused the odor and the resulting symptoms.
