Shelter-in-place order briefly issued at North Dakota derailment site, officials say

Reported about 1 year ago

Officials issued a shelter-in-place notice briefly at the remote site of a train derailment in North Dakota, due to the presence of hazardous materials. The notice was lifted when air monitoring levels returned to normal, with no reported injuries. The derailment caused a fire involving anhydrous ammonia, methanol, and plastic pellets, but the situation was mostly under control by Sunday. Investigations into the cause of the incident are ongoing.
