Tyden Lofts Residents Return After Ricin Evacuation | Grand Rapids News

Residents of Tyden Lofts in Hastings are finally allowed to return home after a ricin scare forced an evacuation last week. The toxin, derived from castor beans and illegal to manufacture, was allegedly made in one of the apartments — though no one has been harmed. Authorities confirmed that second- and third-floor residents can come back, while first-floor cleanup continues under EPA oversight. The FBI is assisting with the ongoing investigation, and officials say there’s no current danger to the community.
