SAN ANTONIO — A call for a strange odor led to an evacuation at a pharmaceutical company near a hospital on the southeast side Friday morning.
The San Antonio Fire Department received a call about a weird smell at a commercial building on the 3300 block of Research Plaza around 5:15 a.m.
All pharmaceutical employees were evacuated and the hazmat team proceeded to investigate the building.
Fire officials said they did discover a strange odor but did not find anything toxic or flammable in the building.
People will be allowed back inside once a final sweep is conducted.
