![]() | palm bay fire. Governor Charlie Crist declared a state of emergency Monday as dry, windy weather fueled several wildfires on Florida's central Atlantic coast, destroying more than a dozen homes. Hundreds of residents were under evacuation orders. Firefighters from around the state and the National Guard were called to assist. The largest fire was in Malabar, where about 3,000 acres burned and at least two homes have been destroyed. In Palm Bay at least a dozen homes were damaged. About 80 miles north in Daytona Beach, an 800-acre fire forced an evacuation order for about 500 homes, but residents were allowed to return Monday evening. No structures were reported damaged, though officials warned embers could fly more than a mile from the blaze and spark new hot spots. A Palm Bay firefighter was injured near Bayside High School. A Daytona Beach firefighter was also treated at the scene for minor injures. |

![]() | Philippines Ferry Search Halted CHEN: The rescue efforts to find hundreds of bodies aboard a Philippines Ferry has been halted. Rescue divers have been alerted that 10 tons of a deadly pesticide, endosulfan was aboard the ferry when it capsized last Saturday. Among the trapped 800 or so passengers and crew, only 54 have been found. STORY: Officials are angry at the owners of the Princess of the Stars. They say Sulpicio Lines will be held accountable for not alerting them to 400 boxes of endosulfan on board. Divers working on the rescue are undergoing medical tests for possible exposure to the deadly chemical. [Vice Admiral Wilfredo Tamayo, Philippines Coast Guard]: "Search and rescue operations are temporarily suspended until such time that we are sure that the chemicals have not spread and there is no danger for our divers." The United States' Environmental Protection Agency classifies this chemical as highly toxic. The cargo was being shipped to a pineapple plantation in the southern Philippines. [Eduardo Duque, Secretary of Health]: "Endosulfan is a restricted pesticide for use in pineapple plantations. At toxic levels and following ingestion, it can cause death or affect the central nervous system." Sulpicio Lines who are already under fire for allowing the ferry to sail say they were never asked about the cargo. [Mario Victoria Lim-Florendo, Sulpicio Lines Spokesman]: "The Coast Guard is the lead agency. We are just cooperating and assisting them. If there was a question with respect to the cargo, we would have voluntarily, we would have willingly revealed all of this." The police have sealed off the area around the capsized vessel. They plan to start removing the pesticide when special diving gear arrives. Efforts to retrieve bodies from the ship will be left till next week. So far, only 56 survivors have been found from the 850 that left on the ill fated voyage. |
