ALBION CITY PARK OFFICIALS REPORT MYSTERIOUS FISH KILL AT PARK

Albion city officials are looking into a large fish kill that occurred at a pond in Roy Luthe Park. The situation was first noticed on Wednesday afternoon when dead fish started appearing on the surface and washing ashore.

The park district is aware of the problem and has requested an investigation by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources. As neighbors began to report unpleasant odors, cleanup efforts were initiated. In the meantime, visitors are urged to steer clear of the pond until further notice.
