BREAKING: Another Japanese Nuke Plant In Trouble From Quake

The Tokyo Electric Power Company has said the cooling systems of three reactors at a second nuclear power plant, Fukushima-Daini, are malfunctioning, according to the Kyodo news agency.

The plant is 11km (7 miles) to the south of Fukushima-Daiichi, where the cooling system in one of its reactors is not working and pressure is rising.

It says the ability to control pressure in some of the reactors at Fukushima-Daini has been lost. Pressure is stable inside the reactors, but rising in the containment vessels, a company spokesman says.
