10:44 PM Video of Oil Rig Fire and Rescue Efforts | |
| By ROBERT MACKEY
As my colleague Campbell Robertson reports, after an explosion on oil rig off the southeast coast of Louisiana on Tuesday night, rescue workers are still searching in the Gulf of Mexico for 11 missing members of the crew. The U.S. Coast Guard released this video of the battle to put out the fire on the rig on Wednesday: On Thursday, CNN’s iReport, a citizen journalism site, posted three closer views of the rig, apparently shot on a phone from one of the boats fighting the blaze. (Note: The CNN video may start playing automatically, so readers may want to turn their volume down.) | |
