A spokesman for the Toledo-Lucas County Health Department says an outbreak that has sickened at least 214 people has been tied to Mama C’s Donuts in Maumee. The illnesses have been tracked to people who ate at the shop between Friday and Monday.

Health officials in neighborin­g Wood County also are investigat­ing whether a dozen cases reported there are linked to stores that sell Mama C’s doughnuts.
