Atlanta Fire Department crews responded Wednesday morning to an alarm and possible chemical leak on the Georgia Tech campus.
The incident took place at the Nanotechnology Research Center, 791 Atlantic Drive near Ferst Drive.
“We put an initial entry team in there to see if there was a leak that was detected in the sensors,” Atlanta fire Assistant Chief Ken Byers told the AJC.
“Our monitors did not pick up any chemical whatsoever and we returned the building back to Georgia Tech engineers,” he said. “When the detectors go off, we treat it as a hazmat incident and we respond.”
Three students were treated on the scene as a precaution. The building was not evacuated.
