LEON HARRIS, CNN ANCHOR: Well, thanks to our Atlanta affiliate WXIA, here, it looks like we're looking at a live picture that is from a scene in Cobb County, which is the northern suburb area of Atlanta, and there's a construction site, as you can tell there, where it appears that there's a worker who is stuck in the trench there.

He has been trapped, by a -- perhaps, a collapsed wall inside there, it is hard for us to tell. We haven't been able to get clear shot of what it looks like behind that back hoe there.

It looks as though like they've got -- I've counted at least fire trucks there, and one EMS vehicle there as well. We have no idea how many people. We do hear at least one person is trapped down there. We'll keep our eye on this story, and we'll let you know how it all turns out.
