SEATTLE — Two of the six workers injured in an explosion at a hydroelectric dam in central Washington have been released from the hospital.
Harborview Medical Center in Seattle advised of the two releases on Sunday.
Three male patients remain.
One is critical in intensive care, one is serious in intensive care and one is satisfactory.
