Authorities are searching for a driver who tried to crash through the gates of a nuclear plant in South Carolina. The incident occurred at the Oconee Nuclear Station near Seneca on Thursday night. Security had previously asked the same car to leave when it attempted to enter the plant. However, a pop-up security barrier prevented the car from entering the plant. The driver then backed up and tried to drive down a dirt road, while Duke Energy security attempted to block them in. The driver allegedly tried to hit the guards before driving through a fence and leaving the plant property. Shots were fired a short distance from the plant, but it is unclear who fired them. The car, a silver 2002 Toyota Camry with an Arkansas license plate, is currently being sought by authorities. Fortunately, no security staff were injured in the incident and the plant is said to be operating safely. The investigation is ongoing.
