Work tug capsizes at Olmsted Lock and Dam

A work tug reportedly capsized on Tuesday morning at Olmsted Lock and Dam along the Ohio River.

Pulaski County, Illinois officials reached out to McCracken County and others for mutual aid, according to sources. Indications were that several people were in the water, but the same sources told West Kentucky Star that all of those on the tug had been accounted for.

No word, yet,  on what caused the incident or if operations at the dam have been disrupted.

The Pulaski County Sheriff's Office had no immediate comment, but told West Kentucky Star that more information would be released at a later time.
