Man Returning from Africa with Ebola Symptoms Admitted to Lakewood Hospital

Lakewood Township New Jersey

A man returning from an unidentified nation in Africa is being checking for Ebola this morning at a hospital in Lakewood. 

The man was admitted to the Monmouth Medical Center late last night after hazmat crew arrived at a condo complex located on Squancum Road and East Kinney Boulevard  where they closed off  a portion of the complex as a precaution. 

Police and hospital officials questioned the man's family in an attempt to learn more of the man's medical background and what nations he had visited in Africa. 

Officials said it will take several days to determine whether the man actually has Ebola.
