     The road that they want evacuated is everything on Grade Lane, (which appears is the road which runs from the airport to 1065) They are asking for a situation report on smoke. 11/4/25 0012 #UPS2976 #SDF #planecrash #aviation

     They are instructing units to make sure any civilians they find on Grade Lane evacuates. Sounds like massive mutual aid response, there are fire units from the Air National Guard, towns and cities near by, and I heard Dow Chemical and American Synthetic fire departments also on scene now. 11/05/25 0024 #UPS2976 #SDF #planecrash #aviation

     3 fatalities and 11 injuries confirmed in news conference. They highly expect those numbers to grow.

     2 businesses primarily hit. Kentucky Petroleum Recycling and Grade A Auto Parts. Some employees are currently missing.

     News conference still in progress
