| 摘要： | No one was hurt when a towboat lost power and went through a gate of the Belleville Dam March 3 on the upper Ohio River, then free floated roughly 11 miles downstream. The boat was the mv. Edith Tripp, owned by Paducah, Ky.-based Crounse Corporation. "They were northbound out of the lock and had gotten about five football field lengths above the dam and lost power," Meigs County (Ohio) Emergency Management Director Jamie Jones said. The single-screw towboat was pushing an empty gravel barge and had eight crew members aboard when the incident took place about 1:30 p.m. The crew got into two skiffs and escaped to safety at the dam. "The towboat broke free from the barge and went through one of the gates and free floated down the river," Jones said. The barge also went through a gate and got caught before freeing itself several hours later. Because of high water, the dam has been running all the gates wide open, Jones said. |
