Healing in a mining town after 12 dead 1 critical
In Tallmansville West Virginia the Sage Baptist Church hosted grieving families and survivors as the 260 foot underground explosion at an International Coal Group mine was confirmed to have killed 12 miners and left one survivor in critical condition. Officials cited methane and coal dust buildup as likely causes and noted miscommunication about the rescued miners led to a mistaken celebration. Randal McCloy survived with a collapsed lung and other injuries, able to squeeze his wife's hand for communication.
