Law enforcement and other officials responded to another train derailment in Ohio on Saturday afternoon.
The Clark County Sheriff’s Office confirmed that deputies and medics were dispatched to the scene in Springfield.
According to local media, scanner traffic indicated that a hazmat team was also dispatched.
The train derailment in Springfield comes one month after East Palestine, which is on the other side of the state, experienced a catastrophic train derailment that was caused by an overheated wheel bearing on the 23rd of 149 rail cars.
Local officials subsequently evacuated all residents within one mile of the accident and started a controlled burn of the vinyl chloride that the train was transporting in an effort to prevent a massive explosion from occurring.
