Had some friends (including my roommate) who were at the convention, though none of the people I know went to the hospital that I know of. Official number of people that were hospitalized was 19 as far as I know, though none of them in super serious condition. I did read one account from someone who was on the 9th floor who was hospitalized, they got the evacuation call...and didn't know that their stairwell was contaminated, so they ran right into the worst of it and nearly passed out. Luckily they made it away alright.
Of course, now it's a guessing game about who it was...it's unlikely that they will ever catch the person unless they were dumb enough to handle the glass jar with their bare hands (if so, some of the pieces may be big enough for finger prints). The popular theories among the furries are either A) someone who was banned from the convention, B) someone who hates furries, or C) a hotel employee who hates the company, the con, or both. Add in D) Psychotic and you have a collection of choices.
Thankfully no one was seriously hurt though...chlorine gas can be nasty stuff, and it can knock you out very quickly if you're not careful."That's too bad. Hospitals aren't fun to fight through."

Quoth MoonCat View PostI wonder if there were any cameras in the hall near that stairwell. Might show someone going into the stairwell. I hope they find whoever's responsible."If your day is filled with firefighting, you need to start taking the matches away from the toddlers…” - HM

So I would be stunned if they had camera footage on the floors, which means it's unlikely there is a recording of the person unless they were dumb enough to walk through the lobbies or meeting areas with the jar they broke in sight..."That's too bad. Hospitals aren't fun to fight through."
