Possible dust triggers alarm at VA hospital

Several Syracuse Fire Department trucks were called to the Syracuse VA Medical Center after a fire alarm went off on Wednesday afternoon.

Around 4 p.m., three fire department trucks arrived at the 800 Irving Ave. emergency entrance of the hospital to investigate the building. Moments later, the firefighters concluded that the alarm was set off by either dust or something like it, in the ventilation system.

Soon afterward, the fire department trucks left the scene.
