In a statement Saturday morning, Richard Rocha, an Amazon spokesperson, said:"The safety and well-being of our employees and partners is our top priority right now. We’re assessing the situation and will share additional information when it's available."First responders surround a damaged Amazon Distribution Center on Dec. 10, 2021, in Edwardsville, Ill.
