FIRE crews were called to Tralee Street, Hume, this morning (December 19) after about five litres of chemical leaked from a container.
Three people were exposed to the chemical leak and two have been taken to hospital in a stable condition with minor injuries.
Three fire pumpers, a hazardous materials vehicle and a command vehicle responded. The leak has been contained.
Crews are cleaning-up and performing atmospheric monitoring.
There is no risk to the public.
