Earlier today we responded to an incident at IDEA school where students were evacuated due to smoke in the building. Upon arrival, fire crews discovered a busted AC line. Students were able to return to their classes, except for the building being vented by the fire crew. We're happy to report that no injuries occurred, and all students are safe.
