HOPKINSVILLE, Ky. (WTVF) — Emergency crews are responding to a reported gas leak Thursday morning near 700 East 7th Street in Hopkinsville, according to the Hopkinsville Fire/EMS.
Firefighters and the local gas utility were operating in the area as of about 9:30 a.m. Thursday.

September 11, 2001 is a day most associate with terror and tragedy. Austin Pollack shares a story from that day about hope and persistence: the effort to save a little girl’s life – with an organ donation. The problem? The young patient was in Houston, and her life-saving liver here in Nashville. With the grounding of all civilian aircraft, how could it be done? “Nobody ever said this isn’t possible.”
