MARSHALL COUNTY, W.Va. (WSAZ) – West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey made an announcement Friday about another mining-related fatality in the state within 24 hours – the latest in northern West Virginia.
The governor released the following statement:
“Denise and I were deeply saddened to learn of the loss of Darin Reece, who passed away following an accident at the Ohio County Mine. We extend our condolences to his family, his fellow miners, and all those who knew him. He served as a Continuous Miner Section Supervisor and was part of a workforce that takes on difficult and dangerous work every day.
“The impact of these events reaches far beyond the job site. It is felt by families, coworkers, and entire communities. That weight is even greater today, as this marks the second loss of life in West Virginia’s mining community in less than 24 hours.
“The West Virginia Office of Miners’ Health, Safety, and Training is on site and conducting a full investigation into the circumstances surrounding this incident.
“We ask West Virginians to keep Darin’s loved ones and the entire mining community in their thoughts during this difficult time.”
Earlier on Friday, Morrisey announced another mining-related death in Raleigh County in the southern part of the state.
