ELIZABETHTOWN, N.C. (WNCT) – More than 20 children were rushed to the hospital Thursday afternoon after too much “pool bleach sanitizer” pumped into a pool at White Lake Water Park.
Park owner Ted Huck says an employee shut down one of the pumps in a new wave pool but did not turn the chlorine system off.
It wasn’t until later that Park officials discovered it was not chlorine but instead “pool bleach sanitizer.”
The children affected were experiencing nausea and vomiting
