More information coming in at this hour as an
IRS office building in Ogden Utah was evacuated and hazmat teams called in to investigate a suspicious substance.
The FBI's Salt Lake City division says it responded to a possible hazardous material threat at the building in Ogden.
The FBI says parts of the building were evacuated. It says some people had medical emergencies but that they did not "appear to be related to this incident."
Video on the Web site of KSL-TV showed two people being taken out on stretchers.
Weber Fire District Deputy Chief Paul Sullivan told The Associated Press that the medical emergencies were coincidental to the discovery of the suspicious substance.
He said two people who already had medical issues happened to have episodes while authorities were on the scene and were treated. He said he couldn't release any additional information.
As of Monday afternoon, several emergency vehicles had left the scene. One hazardous materials response truck remained along with one fire engine.
IRS building, evacuated. How very interesting. I wonder what the justification will be for this one.
