Ohio attorney general still wants answers year after East Palestine derailment
|
 [JustTheNews] Nearly a year after a toxic train derailment left East Palestine, Ohio, reeling, a lawsuit aimed at helping the city and state recover is still ongoing.
Attorney General Dave Yost continues to wait for answers.
“This anniversary fuels so many emotions, and it’s understandable to want to bring this despairing chapter to a close,” Yost said at a Friday news conference. “But rushing matters would be a disservice to the community, as we still need answers to so many questions. Those answers will help us ensure that tragedies like this don’t happen again in Ohio or elsewhere.”
Yost’s comments come on the eve of the first anniversary of a Norfolk Southern train carrying hazardous chemicals derailing, leading to chemicals released into the soil, water and air, forcing the evacuation of thousands of area residents.
As previously reported by The Center Square, the National Transportation Safety Board blamed the derailment on an overheated wheel bearing. There were no injuries from the crash.
The NTSB has yet to issue complete findings.
In March, Yost filed a 58-count federal lawsuit to hold Norfolk Southern accountable for the derailment.
