HazMat crews investigating unusual odor at LAX terminal – NBC Los Angeles

A hazardous material crew was responding Wednesday to a report of a strange odor emanating near a departure gate at LAX.

The smell was coming from a fire control room adjacent to Gate 64A, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.

At least one person with difficulty breathing self-transported to a local hospital, the LAFD said.

It’s unclear what the cause of the smell is.
