Authorities came prepared with orange chemical suits and all.
But the suspicious substance that prompted the evacuation of a northeastern Alabama post office last week turned out to be KY Intense Arousal gel, U.S. Postal Service officials say.
Officials at the local post office in Guntersville, Alabama, say the gel leaked from a package and had spread to between 12 and 15 others Thursday morning.

Gel leak: Officials at the local post office in Guntersville, Alabama, say the gel leaked from a package and had spread to between 12 and 15 others Thursday morning
The discovery sent the office’s staff into a complete frenzy as the gel leak was initially characterized as a chemical spill.
Two post office workers were hospitalized as a precaution after they came into contact with the gel and were not injured, according to local NBC news affiliate WAFF.
Officials now say the gel is made with non-hazardous chemicals that are intended to intensify sensation.

Most fun/excitement these Alabamians had since their wedding night. Or maybe in 60’s in Selma when MLK visited. I lived in Alabama at that time. Of course I was a supporter of MLK, but of course not all were. A marvelous yet difficult time in our history. cyndy
