Mankato, MN
Authorities say the Rapidan Dam, under intense pressure from days of torrential rain and collected debris, is in "imminent failure condition."

"There was some debris that got up against the dam, and that caused the water to find a new path around it and cut over to the west over to where The Dam Store is and the residence that's down there," said Chief Deputy Paul Barta of the Blue Earth County Sheriff's Department from the scene Monday morning. "And it basically eroded away the west side of the dam and created a new path through there. It's taken a substation for the power plant into the river."

Barta said authorities have notified residents downstream from the dam about the potential danger.
