ORLANDO, Fla., Nov. 12 (UPI) -- Seven hunters were sickened in Lake County, Fla., after coming in contact with contaminated sewage while rounding up their dogs.

Two hunters were hospitalized from the smell of the sewage illegally dumped in the Ocala National Forest, Orlando's WKMG-TV reported Monday.

Crews were also working to decontaminate the sewage and the investigation was turned over the Division of Forestry officials.
