We were called at 11.02 to reports of a chemical incident on Quarry Court in Halifax.

This involves some chemicals which have mixed and produced a gas cloud.

As a precaution we are asking the public within 100 metres of the area to stay indoors with the doors and windows shut.

All local businesses in the area should also shut doors and windows.

We currently have a crew from Illingworth and our DIM Unit at the scene.
