Alaska Village Finds Toxic Antifreeze in Water | Anchorage News

Description

Emergency bottled water is arriving, medical teams are on standby, and officials are investigating the source after a similar incident last summer. For now, showering and washing are still okay, but all ingestion must come from safe, delivered water while cleanup efforts ramp up.
