The Northview Pool came to an abrupt close Wednesday afternoon following multiple reports of chlorine exposure.
Riley County Police announced on Twitter that the 500 block of Griffith Drive had been closed for emergency services. In a separate tweet, police confirmed there was no danger to the areas surrounding the pool.
“There were some injuries, however they were all employees,” said Manhattan Parks and Recreation Community Relations Officer Melissa Kirkwood. “They’re currently being cared for at Via Christi hospital for non-life-threatening, burn related injuries.”
The Northview Pool will remain closed until further notice.
