A half mile radius around Anderson Development in Adrian has been evacuated due to a Hazardous Material situation.
The location at 1450 E. Michigan St., Police told WXYZ that a tanker truck carrying n-Butyl Methacrylate began heating up Tuesday afternoon.
Adrian Fire Department and the Lenawee Hazmat team were called on scene and began working with Anderson Development to mitigate the situation.
The 1/2 mile evacuation is still in effect as a precaution. There has been no release of chemical and the situation is being mitigated. The reaction process is being neutralized and the scene should be clear within a few hours.
Due to the accidents occurring earlier today on Rt 24, some of the Napoleon Area City School buses will be running approximately 10 minutes late on student drop-off today.
