'You mostly worry about the kids, because they're outside trying to play, breathing this air,' Leonardo Chiles, who lives near the Carson business, told CBSLA

Officials with the Air Quality Management District issued a notice of violation to Parter Sterilization Services in Carson for allegedly releasing a toxic gas into the air.

"You worry about your head. I'm getting up in age, but my grandkids is what I really care about," Chiles told CBSLA. "They're making money by being here, so they need to be more responsible," she said. People exposed ethylene oxide may experience headaches, nausea and vomiting among other symptoms, but long-term exposure to the gas can lead to cancer.
