LAX gas leak shuts terminal, sickens airport workers

A terminal at Los Angeles International Airport was evacuated after a suspected carbon dioxide gas leak.

It sickened four airport workers with one in a critical condition.

Terminal 8 was later deemed safe and reopened.

United Airlines had to ‘temporarily consolidate’ operations to Terminal 7 for a few hours.

All other terminals operated as normal.

The most seriously injured worker went into cardiac arrest, the LAFD said.
