The University of Toledo Law Center was evacuated today after someone smelled natural gas additives, authorities said.

Jon Strunk, a University of Toledo spokesman, said the natural gas supply to the law center was cut off and the building was evacuated about 2 p.m. He did not say how many people were evacuated.

Columbia Gas crews were on scene as of about 3 p.m., looking for the source of the suspected gas leak, Mr. Strunk said.

Classes were canceled until further notice at least until 6 p.m.
