Residents near Ohio train derailment begin to file lawsuits

“Nobody can tell us what we should do other than ‘It s safe, go head on back in there,'” Feezle said, his voice crackly. “And the fish are dying and animals are dying and I can hardly talk and my chest hurts.”

His lawsuit is one of at least six class action suits already filed against Norfolk Southern since the accident. For the most part, those suing the company allege that they ve lost income due to evacuations, were exposed to cancer-causing chemicals and no longer feel safe in their homes.
