VERMILION COUNTY -- A blade from a wind turbine got tangled up in itself Wednesday morning. It's near Potomac just off Route 49.

It's one of 134 turbines owned by Invenergy. The company said they shut down all the turbines until they can get it fixed and find out what happened.

Neighbors said they're concerned about safety around the wind farms. No one was hurt.
