ALISO VIEJO, Calif. - An unidentified fluid leaked from a package in an Orange County office building Monday morning, with intoxicating results.
At least four workers felt ill after breathing the fumes. The building was quickly evacuated and an Orange County Fire Department Hazardous Waste team was dispatched.
The dangerous fluid?
"It was 80-proof Russian Vodka"
said Scott Lake, a spokesman for the Orange County Fire Department.
The discovery was made after the Department's Hazardous Materials Team had sprayed four workers with decontaminants and sent a firefighter in a special suit to inspect the contents of the bag. The firefighter found a broken bottle of vodka inside.
