Gas Scare in Eskifjörður 28. júní 2006 10:05 Sjúkraflug frá Eskifirði vegna eitrunnar sem kom upp þar. Tekið 27,06,06, 34 people had to be rushed to the hospital in Eskifjörður due to hydrogen chlorine gas that was the result of a acetic acid being mixed with the chloride in the swimming pool in Eskifjörður. This resulted in drop of the acid level in the pool and the HCI gas that came resulted in a chemical compound with the water which is life threating. The mistake was fortunately discovered by workers in the vicinity. The reaction of local officals was efficient and a chopper and airplane with medical staff aboard left from Reykjavík to assist in the rescue effort. Four people were taken to the hospital in Reykjavik but their condition is stable. The cause of the accident is said to be an error in shipment. Acetic acid was delivered to the swimming pool instead of chlorine. mld News News in English Mest lesið Það sem við vitum og vitum ekki um manndrápið hrottalega Innlent „Þetta er risastór áfangi og gleðitíðindi fyrir Kópavogsbæ“ Innlent Sólrún fundin á Spáni Innlent Hætta við uppbygginguna vegna „neikvæðrar umræðu“ Innlent Sendi Dönum tóninn Erlent Mátti binda barn á höndum og fótum og kitla það Innlent Rak sex eftir fund með umdeildum samsæringi Erlent Prestur sakar oddvita um ólýðræðislega hallarbyltingu í veiðifélagi Innlent Stoppaður af vegfaranda sem spurði: „Hvað er þetta?“ Innlent Russell Brand ákærður fyrir nauðganir og kynferðisbrot Erlent
