Conn. teen's body spray sets off school fire alarm


(05-11) 06:27 PDT Middletown, Conn. (AP) -- Officials say a fire alarm that went off at a Connecticut high school was activated by a student's "overabundance" of body spray in a locker room. Firefighters were called to Middletown High School shortly after 3 p.m. Thursday. Officials told The Middletown Press ( http://bit.ly/Kej9rY) that the student used an excessive amount of the scented spray and created a cloud of mist right below a heat sensor, which tripped the fire alarm. Firefighters allowed students and teachers to return to the building shortly after arriving. Officials deemed the call a "routine accidental."
