SANDUSKY COUNTY, OH (TOLEDO NEWS NOW) - More testing is scheduled for a park in Sandusky County.

The park, which used to be owned by Whirlpool, has already tested positive for toxic chemicals that are linked to some cancers.

Attorneys for the park owner say the additional testing should begin in February.

The Environmental Protection Agency is investigating a cancer cluster in the county that has sickened and even killed a high number of children.
