Update Multi-Patient Medical; INC#0780; 01:10PM; 375 E 2nd St; https://bit.ly/4fnOCYQ; #Downtown; Police Officers from one or more agencies were reportedly involved in a law enforcement tactical operation when a yet to be identified substance was spilled upon a sidewalk. Soon thereafter, at least three persons - at this time, all believed adult male civilians, became subjectively ill with non-specific symptoms. Two of those patients have been taken by LAFD ambulance to an area hospital, where one refused care. The remaining patient continues to be medically evaluated at the scene, pending ambulance transport, as an LAFD Hazardous Materials Task Force completes a comprehensive assessment of the location and endeavors to positively identify the substance. No other patients have been identified. There is currently no escalating or off-site hazard. #LATraffic: 2nd Street remains fully closed between Central Avenue and San Pedro Street until LAFD operations are complete and the site has been confirmed safe for public access. Unknown ETO. Travelers are asked to avoid the area and consider an alternate route. Detours are available.
