'Noxious odour' which closed school turns out to be Lynx body spray

Eight students in Brooklyn, New York were hospitalised after the spray was released in a classroom.

A SCHOOL IN the US was closed on Wednesday after a ‘hazardous’ substance resulted in eight tweens being hospitalised.

Emergency services were called to Medgar Evers College Preparatory School in Brooklyn when a seemingly toxic smell in a classroom resulted in several students growing ill.

What was actually going on?  An overabundance of Lynx, or Axe as it’s known in the US.

Not exactly the effect the ads would lead you to believe the product has, eh?
