Grain Bin Collapse in Illinois
Dramatic video captured the moment a concrete grain bin full of soybeans collapsed in Martinton, Illinois, sending people running for safety.
The incident, which occurred on Wednesday, brought down power lines and sent sparks flying. Fortunately, no one was hurt, but dozens of homes were left without power, according to officials.
The collapse happened after emergency crews had cleared the area due to a reported crack in the structure in Iroquois County, approximately 65 miles south of Chicago.
As a result, the entire power line system must be rebuilt, and there is currently no timeline for when electricity will be restored.
