At least 84 people have been exposed to a suspected irritant gas at a high school in southwestern Germany, according to German news agency dpa.
Both students and teachers experienced mostly slight health effects at the school in the town of Singen, dpa said. Three students and a teacher, however, had to be taken to the hospital after experiencing severe respiratory problems.
The school was evacuated and police cordoned off the area Wednesday. It was not immediately clear if the incident involved a leak or a spill.
