The Marshall Fire Department and the Southwest Minnesota Chemical Assessment Team were called to the Arctic Glacier ice facility on Halbur Road in Marshall Thursday night, in response to reports of an ammonia odor. Marshall Police blocked traffic on Michigan Road, and nearby businesses in the industrial park were evacuated while responders went to work. Marshall Fire Chief Quentin Brunsvold said responders thought the leak was no longer active. They ventilated the structure, and businesses to the north of Arctic Glacier were evacuated, Brunsvold said.
