San Jose fire department hazmat team respond to ammonia spill
SAN JOSE, Calif. - San Jose Fire Department says a hazardous materials team has contained an ammonia spill Friday and that the leak is under control.

SJ Fire tweeted at 4:20 p.m. to avoid the area of the 400 block of Eggo Way. This is near a Kellogg corporate campus just west of the Bayshore Freeway, U.S. 101.
At least one patient was assessed on scene and released, officials said. There were no other injuries to report.
San Jose police said they are assisting with traffic control in the area. Access to Eggo Way was closed at E. Julian and Wooster Avenue. Streets reopened shortly after 8 p.m.
