CASCADE TOWNSHIP, Mich. - Emergency responders were dispatched to a Cascade Township hotel on a medical call Monday morning.
Around 10 a.m. July 9, 911 was called for four children and two adults who were having trouble breathing at the Holiday Inn Express located at 5401 28th Street Court SE.
A hotel representative told 13 ON YOUR SIDE that all six victims were taken to the hospital as a precaution.
"We responded with fire and ambulance and a family of six was transported. Complained of breathing trouble and some coughing, -- it was a non-emergency transport," said Joel Roon with the Kent County Sheriff's Department.
After tests by the health department were completed, the pool was closed. Officials found too much chlorine and low pH levels in the water. This means the hotel will have to drain the pool, fix the water chemistry and some ventilation issues before they can reopen.
