GREENVILLE, Texas

TxDOT workers worked through the night to repair a section of eastbound Joe Ramsey Blvd in Greenville after the pavement buckled on Thurs evening.

The buckling occurred near King St where officials warned motorists that the damaged pavement had created “a ramp-like hazard” for eastbound traffic traveling toward Wesley St.

The City of Greenville announced late Thursday in a social media post that it was aware of the roadway damage and confirmed early Friday that crews had made necessary repairs to the road.

Quetta, Pakistan

At least 15 miners were killed and more than a dozen remained trapped after a methane gas explosion in a coalfield near Quetta, the provincial capital of Balochistan, an official said on Friday.

The blast took place on Thursday in the Sorange coalfield during a shift change, damaging a neighbouring mine as well and trapping 36 workers.

Chief Inspector of Mines Muhammad Atif said rescue teams had "recovered 15 bodies and rescued 16 of the trapped workers until this morning".

The miners were about 4,000 feet underground when the explosion and the fire that followed hit the site. The blast caused structural collapses, killing several workers instantly and leaving others trapped under burning debris.
