Cherry Hill Hazardous Materials Unit was called to Our Lady Of Lourdes Hospital to assist the Camden City Fire Department with a 125 lb Freon Cylinder that was leaking in the basement. Members of both Cherry Hill and Camden Fire Departments removed the cylinder from the basement and stopped the leak by using sidewall patches. The cylinder was then placed into the Cherry Hill Fire Departments containment vessel. The Hospital was thoroughly checked and metered to ensure that there was no threat to the patients and faculty. A small amount of product was released into the building with no threat to the hospital .
