Worker Taken to Hospital After Inhalant Related Spill

From the Boston Globe:

Yesterday afternoon, “Upon moving a vile of isobutyl nitrite that was being stored as evidence at the warehouse, workers spilled about an ounce of the substance.” The article notes that the substance is used as an “inhalant recreational drug.”

One worker was sent to the hospital for evaluation after feeling lightheaded. The “Fire Department's hazardous materials team investigated and disposed of the substance within two hours.”
