Residents of Nashville, Illinois, were forced to evacuate on Tuesday morning as water overtopped a reservoir dam, prompting fears of a potential rupture. The situation, however, is now under control, according to local officials.
The flooding was triggered by extensive rain on Monday and Tuesday, causing water to run over the dam and flood downstream areas. Approximately 200 residences were deemed at risk of flooding, leading to the evacuation of residents in the affected area.
