INTERESTING NEWS: 7 HOSPITALIZED AFTER OFFICE FRIDGE CLEAN UP

In San Jose, California an office worker was cleaning out a fridge full of rotten food. With all the food combined, the smell became so intoxicating that seven co-workers had to be sent to the hospital. Many others became ill. Firefighters had to evacuate the AT&T building and a hazmat team was called in. Crews found an unplugged refrigerator packed with old moldy food.
According to authorities, an office worker decided to clean out the fridge and placed all the food in a conference room. He used two highly smelling chemicals to scrub the fridge down. The mixture of the old food and disinfectants caused about 28 people to need treatment for nausea and vomiting. Authorities even say that the woman cleaning out the fridge couldn't smell a thing, she had allergies.
