Iceland evacuates hundreds near restless volcano
Icelandic emergency officials evacuated hundreds of people near a restless volcano Wednesday amid fears of second eruption.
Some 800 people near the Eyjafjallajokull (AYA-feeyapla-yurkul) volcano were evacuated after seismic activity suggested it may have erupted for the second time, said Rognvaldur Olafsson, a chief inspector for the Icelandic Civil Protection Agency. The volcano, 75 miles (120 kilometers) east of Reykjavik, erupted March 20 month after almost 200 years of silence. (AP)
