A malfunction in Glenville's United Bank air conditioning
system closed the facility late Thursday morning. The bank
reopened for business Friday.
An air conditioner hose broke causing a fog to
spread through the ventilation system, according to bank
officials.
The facility was evacuated immediately. No one was
injured.
Members of the Glenville Volunteer Fire Department
responded to the 11:45 a.m. call for help. Two ambulances
were dispatched to the scene as a precautionary measure.
Emergency personnel were there for about an
hour.
All of the bank's doors were opened and special fans were
used to air out the building.
Friday it was back to business as usual. As part of its Folk
Festival tradition, Assistant Vice-President Marty Collins,
and other bank employees, greeted the public at United
Bank's Main Street entrance.
Collins praised the quick response of the fire department,
sheriff's department and ambulance service.
"They did such a nice job. We couldn't thank them enough."
She was particularly grateful that Sheriff Mickey Metz
provided security while the fumes were cleared from the bank.
