trouble breathing, and complained of being light-headed and dizzy…Soon after 10 other employees said they too were feeling ill…In all three people were taken to the hospital with heat related illnesses, the remaining eight were treated and released…”
Northwest Fire, along with emergency medical personnel are on scene at a McDonald’s Restaurant located at 8280 North Cortaro Road. The restaurant was evacuated after 11 employees became ill. Firefighters with the Northwest Fire District said they initially thought hazardous materials was the cause, turns out it was heat related.
Captain Adam Goldberg says, “It is a hundred and some odd degrees outside, 96 degrees inside and for anybody who doesn’t prepare for high temperatures certainly they will feel the effects of that heat, and some who are not in good physical condition to begin with will feel those effects sooner.”
The 19 year old is listed in serious condition, the other two are stable.
