Search for trapped worker inside a West Virginia coal mine is a rescue operation, governor says

Crews desperately continued removing massive amounts of water in an effort to locate a trapped worker inside a flooded coal mine in West Virginia as the work entered a fifth day Wednesday. Gov. Patrick Morrisey said the efforts by crews about three-fourths of a mile into the Rolling Thunder Mine remained a rescue operation. “I think people are doing everything imaginable,” Morrisey said.
