FRANKFORT, Kentucky

WLKY NewsChopper flew over a mudslide at Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort Monday.

The collapse went all the way up to asphalt behind some of the bourbon facility's central buildings, causing a loss of some property into the Kentucky River.

Though crews are still assessing the situation, they know the mudslide resulted in one Conex cargo container and one temporary office building falling into the river.

There weren't any team members near the area at the time of the mudslide, and the affected property has been roped off to ensure the safety of those at the distillery.

Production, as well as tours and visitation at the distillery, have not been disrupted by the mudslide.

SAN BERNARDINO CO., California

Residents over the weekend reported a “boom” that shook homes and scared animals and people in the Phelan area.

Ricardo Martinez of Phelan told the Daily Press that at around 10 p.m. Sunday, he heard a “loud boom,” which rattled his home.

“My 5 dogs all jumped up and started barking. I thought it was an earthquake, but I couldn’t find anything online.”

On Sunday night, the USGS reported no significant seismic activity in the area.

On the Phelan Informed FB page, Anna said, “Our whole house shook. We’re near Forever Wild.”

Residents in Pinon Hills, Baldy Mesa, and that south of El Mirage also shared that they heard the boom, felt their homes shake, and watched frightened dogs.

Similar unexplained booms have been reported in the High Desert region for decades, with residents offering various theories but no definitive answers.

EVANSVILLE, Indiana

Road closures in Downtown Evansville now extend to a portion of Riverside Dr, where city officials said "a large sinkhole" had formed in the roadway's WB lanes on Monday.

Evansville Water and Sewer Utility spokeswoman Ella Johnson-Watson wrote in an afternoon news release that both WB lanes were "closed to all traffic bw Cherry St and Chestnut St" while workers investigated the depression in the roadway, which appeared to have cracked a stretch of asphalt.

The section of road will remain closed while crews determine the cause of the sinkhole and complete repairs.
