“…an employee had accidentally poured chlorine into a container of muriatic acid, causing a chemical 
reaction…since chlorine was diluted and poured down a drain by an employee, the Region of Peel’s hazardous materials team has also been sent to the hotel…”
A mishap with pool chemicals has forced some of the staff and guests at the Hilton Garden Inn on Traders Blvd. E. to be evacuated from the hotel this morning.
Everyone on the first floor of the building was evacuated as the Mississauga Fire and Emergency Services Department and police arrived. The second floor has now been evacuated after guests reported smelling chlorine. A Mississauga Transit bus has been sent to the hotel at 100 Traders Blvd. E., just east of Hurontario St., to accommodate those who have been forced outside. A decontamination area has been set up to help with the clean-up.
An ambulance has taken one person to Credit Valley Hospital.
