VIDEO & PHOTOS: Haz-Mat investigating possible Hazardous Material in Lakewood Home [UPDATED]

haz mat birch[VIDEO BELOW] The Haz-Mat team is investigating possible hazardous material found in a Lakewood home this morning.

Haz-Mat was summoned to the Birch Street home in Lakewood shortly after 6 AM this morning, but police have not yet officially release what type of material was found.

Also on scene is the Lakewood Fire Department and Lakewood EMS.

UPDATE 12:30 PM: The material turned out to be non-hazardous, police told TLS.

Sources also tell TLS a teen at that home attempted to commit suicide last night, which following tests and symptoms led emergency personnel to believe the substance was ricin – a substance used in bombs as well. The tests came back negative.
