Indiana Recycling Plant Fire Raises Health Concerns and Cancer Risks.

The still-smoldering fire at an Indiana recycling plant is spewing carcinogens more than a mile away, including "asbestos-containing" debris, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. The evacuation order that forced 2,000 residents to flee their homes is still in effect as federal, state and local agencies develop plans to deal with the cancer-causing fragments in nearby neighborhoods. Hydrogen cyanide, benzene, chlorine, carbon monoxide and volatile organic compounds have also been detected in the evacuation zone. The exact cause of the blaze is still under investigation.
