False alarm when the Pentagon was evacuated
Parts of the US Defense Headquarters Pentagon were evacuated on Thursday after an alarm about “an incident” with hazardous materials. But the alarm was a false alarm, reports CNN.
The Arlington Fire Department, where the Pentagon’s giant building is located, stated on X that they had sent a special team. Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell told CNN that the warning systems “have detected problems with air quality” and that a large number of people have been evacuated.
About an hour later, the television channel, citing sources within the Pentagon, was able to announce that it was a false alarm.
