Germantown Walmart Reopens

The Walmart on Appleton Avenue in Germantown reopened Friday afternoon more than 24 hours after some kinds of chemical made people there sick. 47 people had to go to the hospital after the chemical release.

Police have said they consider the store to be a crime scene. They have sent the chemical to a lab for tests. Police say it's not clear if someone intentionally released the chemical or if it was released as the result of some kind of mechanical failure.

The FBI and ATF are assisting in the investigation. - WTMJ Story
