A report of a foul odor at O'Hare International Airport today may have been "sewer gas," police say, but it wasn't hazardous and didn't affect flights.
Ambulances from the Chicago Fire Department were called to a service area at about 8:10 a.m. at O'Hare after three employees complained of a foul smell in the air, airport and fire officials said.The employees were checked out, but no one was transported to hospitals.
"By the time it was reported and the scene was secured, it was about 10 minutes," said Chicago Department of Aviation spokeswoman Karen Pride.No flights were delayed, she said.A broken pipe may have caused the odor, but the official source hadn't been tracked down this morning, Pride said, adding that dangerous or flammable materials had been ruled out."They think it may be sewer gas. It doesn't appear to be anything there to hurt anyone," Officer Marcel Bright said.
