The Toledo Police Department's Scott Park district station was evacuated for about 45 minutes yesterday while Toledo firefighters investigated a burning smell in one of the restrooms in the station's locker room area.

Scott Park Capt. Jack Smith said an officer noticed the smell and a haze in the area about 10:30 a.m. He said firefighters and an onsite electrician were not able to identify the source.

About five visitors were asked to leave when the building was evacuated.
