ZONDERVAN-PACKAGE CASCADE TWP, MICH (wgvu) -

THAT SCARY SITUATION MONDAY AT ZONDERVAN WORLD HEADUARTERS IN CASDADE TOWNSHIP WAS APPARENTLY A LITTLE OVERBLOWN. IT STARTED WHEN AN EMPLOYEE OPENED A PACKAGE CONTAINING AN UNKNOWN SUBSTANCE DESCRIBED AS HAVING AN OFFENSIVE SMELL. SHORTLY AFTERWARDS, TWO WORKERS BEGAN COMPLAINING OF BREATHING DIFFICULTIES AND TOWNSHIP FIRE RESCUE WAS CALLED. ONE EMPLOYEE WAS TREATED AT THE SCENE, THE OTHER TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL AND THE BUILDING WAS EVACUATED AS A PRECAUTION. THE GRAND RAPIDS HAZARDOUS MATERIALS TEAM TOOK THE PACKAGE, AND THE BUILDING WAS LATER CLEARED AND EMPLOYEES ALLOWED TO RETURN. A RELEASE FROM THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE SAYS THE SUBSTANCE WAS DIRT. THE INVESTIGATION HAS BEEN TURNED OVER TO THE F-B-I.
