Parking Structure Evacuated At Pasadena City College

PASADENA (CBSLA) — Authorities evacuated a parking structure Wednesday at Pasadena City College after a man was found passed out in a car with "suspicious notes" on the outside of a vehicle, authorities said.

Officials closed Hill Avenue from Del Mar Boulevard to Green Street on the southwest side of the campus just before noon after reports of a man who appeared to have passed out inside a vehicle, according to Lisa Derderian of the Pasadena Fire Department.

In addition to a strong odor of sulfur, there were "suspicious notes" on the outside of the vehicle, which was on the third story of the structure, Derderian said.

A hazmat team was called in to assess the scene.
