A primary school was evacuated
near Milan Monday over a suspected gas leak.
Around 270 pupils were taken out of the school which is in Via
Lazio, at Melegnano.
Emergency services rushed to the scene with six vehicles as
well as a helicopter.
Fire services said no one had to be taken to hospital, for
the moment.
The scare ended when services established that the gas was a
harmless ingredient put into methane at a local factory to give
it its smell.
