Minn. School Chlorine Leak Injures 25



COLD SPRING, Minn. -- About 25 people are being taken to a Minnesota hospital with apparent respiratory injuries after a chlorine gas leak at a high school.

Stearns County Chief Sheriff's Deputy Bruce Bechtold says the severity of the injuries in Wednesday's leak at Rocori High School is not immediately clear.

He says "a good number" of the victims are students.

The school was the site of a deadly shooting more than four years ago. John Jason McLaughlin is serving a life sentence for killing two boys.
