SALT LAKE CITY (AP) - Salt Lake City roads have reopened after a chemical leak at a meat packing plant shut them down on Sunday.

Officials say the toxic chemical anhydrous ammonia escaped a meat packing plant near 750 South and 5th East. No evacuations were ordered, but firefighters advised people in the area to shelter in place.

Officials say the business had a similar leak about a month ago.
