OHIO TRAIN DERAILMENT: REP. OMAR CALLS OUT BUTTIGIEG FOR ‘DIRECT ACTION,’ VANCE SAYS ‘MANY QUESTIONS REMAIN’

The East Montgomery Fire Department said that there is no active threat to the community stemming from the wreck, putting some fears to rest after a train derailment earlier in the month sent toxic gases into the air over East Palestine, Ohio. 

Police said that it could be eight to 15 hours before cleanup is completed and all roads are reopened. 

The derailed train is owned by Union Pacific, which has more than 6,400 miles of track throughout Texas. The railroad did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Monday.
