A state of emergency has been declared in southwest Michigan's Kalamazoo County after an oil pipeline sprung a leak in Marshall Township, releasing more than 800,000 gallons of oil released into a creek. The oil then made its way downstream in the Kalamazoo River. It's expected the oil could reach Lake Michigan soon. The spill has already been called the largest oil spill in the history of the US Midwest.
