Two football star athletes at a local high school (poor, majority-Black neighborhood) died of mysterious brain tumors about 5 years ago. Their high school is a few hundred feet down a gentle grade from a row of auto shops. The parents of the deceased were certain for years that the auto shops were the problem, and brought it up repeatedly to city council and the mayor, but no one acted on it. No one even tested the groundwater until a routine inspection of the high school's heating system in the basement a couple years later, where they found extremely unhealthy levels of TCE. I'm not sure if they ever started enforcing things better, but knowing the local government I doubt it.
