NTSB releases preliminary report on Ohio derailment

Federal investigators say the crew of the train that derailed in East Palestine, Ohio, tried to slow and stop the train after getting a critical sensor warning. But the preliminary NTSB investigation also found that the warning, which came from an overheated axle, didn't arrive until just moments before the train went off the track. Geoff Bennet reports.
