Exxon Pipeline Leaks Oil Into Yellowstone River (VIDEO)

Emergency clean-up crews are working hard after an ExxonMobil pipeline ruptured over the weekend, spilling more than 1,000 barrels into Montana's Yellowstone River.

Officials are still investigating the cause of the rupture, initially speculating that a rapid current removed a protective layer of dirt from the pipeline, exposing the pipes to debris traveling down the river.

ExxonMobile has since shut down the pipeline.
