Intensive Search Underway for Trapped Man in Collapsed Kentucky Coal Building
Rescuers are intensively searching for a man trapped beneath the debris of a collapsed coal processing building in rural Kentucky, with hopes of finding him alive, despite one worker being declared dead in the incident. The building, slated for demolition, collapsed while two workers were removing machinery. The search involves a thorough examination of the rubble for any clues to locate the missing individual, and the building's owner, Lexington Coal Company, is expected to adhere to state mining laws for demolition and reclamation.
A train derailment in eastern Kentucky caused the spillage of a chemical, leading officials to advise the evacuation of Livingston, a small town of about 200 residents, due to concerns about air quality.
