Ohio Governor Assures Residents That Air & Water Are Safe

EAST PALESTINE, Ohio (AP) – Ohio’s governor says a plume of chemicals that spilled into the Ohio River after a fiery train derailment has broken up and is no longer a concern. But worries remain among residents near the disaster site who’ve complained about lingering headaches and irritated eyes. Authorities say air and water testing has shown no signs of contaminants. Some around East Palestine, along the Pennsylvania state line, are still skeptical and afraid to return to their homes. Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine says the state plans to open a medical clinic early next week to evaluate those who are worried and evaluate their symptoms.
