Palestine from Taggart Road to Pleasant Street. An alert sent to people in
the area also said, "An evacuation has been ordered in a 1 mile area of
the James St Crossing. A shelter is available at the East Palestine High

Police are driving through the area and using a loudspeaker to tell
residents to evacuate.
