BATON ROUGE — The LSU Digital Media Center was evacuated Monday following reports of excessive carbon monoxide levels attributed to a faulty boiler.

"A full building evacuation has been initiated," LSU said in a message sent to students. A university spokesman said the building would remain closed until it is safe for people to re-enter.

LSU Facility Services and EHS both responded to the scene to "assist in clearing the building and determining the cause."
