PARIS (AP) — A foul-smelling cloud of gas escaped from a factory in northern France on Tuesday, making life unpleasant from the outskirts of Paris to Britain's shores and prompting scores of emergency calls. France's Interior Ministry released a statement saying the mercaptan gas escaping from the Rouen chemical factory is harmless. The local government posted a message on its website, asking people not to call emergency services and instead set up a hotline to answer questions about the smell.
