Dingell said her office is currently “in touch with Supervisor Kevin McNamara, the Van Buren Fire Department, and other local officials regarding the train derailment in Van Buren Township.” She added: "We will continue to monitor the situation very closely and remain in touch with federal, state, and local officials, and release additional information as it becomes available.” The Feb. 3 incident in East Palestine happened so suddenly that most of the people in the town were caught off-guard. Reports said the train was on its way to a nearby chemical plant, and it was carrying a variety of dangerous substances. As it approached a curve in the tracks, the train suddenly went off the rails and crashed into a nearby embankment. The impact was so strong that several of the train cars burst open, spilling their contents all over the surrounding area. Reports noted that police, EMS, and fire trucks quickly converged on the site, but responders were taken aback by the extent of the damage. The train had been carrying highly toxic chemicals, including chlorine gas and sulfuric acid, both of which are known to be incredibly dangerous. As emergency services attempted to assess the situation and seek out victims, they quickly realized that the situation was much worse than they had initially thought. Many of the train cars were still burning, and the spilled chemicals were beginning to spread across the surrounding area. The fumes were so noxious that people in the surrounding neighborhoods were instructed to stay indoors and keep their windows closed. Earlier this week in Arizona, a truck carrying nitric acid suddenly lost control and overturned, spilling its dangerous contents all over the road. As the first responders arrived on the scene, they were met with the overwhelming smell of the toxic acid. The fumes were so strong that they could be felt from several miles away, authorities reported. As the truck lay on its side, the acid began to seep out, spreading quickly and dangerously across the surrounding area.EGLE is aware of the train derailment in Van Buren Township, Wayne County, where initial reports indicate no threat to the public from the derailment. EGLE personnel are on their way to the scene to assist in assessing the situation.

The Tucson Fire Department noted in a statement personnel were helping "control the hazmat and brush fire incidents" at the crash site. The extent of injuries and whether other vehicles were involved were not revealed, nor was the accident's cause or scope of the spill. So many incidents in such a short amount of time have led some analysts to believe the country is under some kind of attack, as noted by the DC Draino Twitter account this week.VIDEO: Footage of truck carrying liquid nitric acid overturned on I-10 in Tucson, Arizona
