SAN JOSE — An apparent suicide involving a poisonous chemical sent several people to the hospital and prompted the evacuation of three floors of the Hotel Fairmont in Downtown San Jose on Saturday, authorities said.

Firefighters were called to the hotel around 10 a.m. for a reported suicide after a hotel staff member found a woman dead in a room on the 19th floor and smelled a chemical odor.
