MOUNT LEBANON, Pa. (KDKA)-- The Allegheny Hazmat Team was called to Mt. Lebanon this afternoon after reports of a chemical odor.

First responders arrived at the scene, between Bower Hill and Jayson Avenue, on the 400 block Marlin Drive just before 4 p.m.

First responders entered a home where they say they found the chemical smell coming from a sulfur dioxide leak.
