Fellow InjuryBoard blogger, Charles Monnett in Charlotte, has a great post about this morning's chemical fire in Apex, NC. Over half the city had to be evacuated as chlorine and other hazardous gasses lingered over the city in a cloud of noxious smoke. The city is located about 10 miles from Raleigh, and many people, mostly residents of a nursing home, have been admitted to local hospitals with respiratory issues.

The Strom Law Firm has experience dealing with evacuees from toxic gas spills, as we represented victims of the Norfolk-Southern train crash chlorine spill last year. If you or a family member has been evacuated or injured as a result of the Apex fire, it may be important to contact a lawyer to protect your legal rights.
