According to media sources, a huge train derailment has occurred in a residential area in Van Buren, Michigan. Officials were in the region to evaluate the situation and decide whether the local populace was in danger.

According to reports as of early Thursday afternoon, there were no immediate concerns.

Local Detroit 4 published overhead footage from Van Buren depicting at least six derailed vehicles and a state of pandemonium.

At 10:55 a.m., CBS published a very confused update: “According to the Van Buren Township Police Department, there is evidence of exposed hazardous materials, and none of the train cars containing hazardous materials were compromised in the incident.”

Another day, another derailment. WHAT’S GOING ON?

Chopper video shows at least six cars off the track.
