Several area chemical plants have been warned to take extra precautions after a boat masquerading as a Coast Guard vessel was spotted on the Kanawha River.

"They should do whatever is necessary to protect the facility if the boat approaches at high speed," said Lt. Renee Kern, chief of port operations for the Coast Guard's Huntington office.

Give one warning to board, if negative response, blow it out the water!

Thanks for the ping. Shortly (minutes) after 9-11 attack, the city of Charleston shut down. Schools closed, offices, EVERYTHING!
