According to a post from Aurora Fire, maintenance crews “found a pump leaking pool chemicals into the air and shut it down before AFR’s arrival.”

The hazardous materials team with Aurora Fire evacuated the pool, monitored air quality and treated people who sustained injuries. A total of seven people sustained non-life-threatening injuries, and five of them were taken to nearby hospitals.

Aurora Fire Rescue said the pool is waiting for repairs and has been closed because of weather conditions.
