Two sailors were transported to a medical facility with non-life threatening injuries Saturday after a Navy nuclear submarine docked in a naval shipyard experienced an accident while conducting a routine test, according to a statement from the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in Washington state.
The USS Louisiana ballistic missile submarine "experienced a problem in the forward crew access compartment while conducting a routine compartment air test," according to Anna Taylor, spokesperson for the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance Facility in Bremerton.
"The boat's nuclear propulsion space was not affected," she added.

As a shrinking number of Transportation Security Administration agents work to keep hourslong security lines moving despite not being paid, President Donald Trump stepped into the fray Saturday, announcing he will send Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers to airports by Monday if Congress doesn’t agree to a plan to end the partial government shutdown.
