Md. Gov. Hogan calls to ban fracking in the state.
'Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan (R) called Friday for a ban on hydraulic fracturing in the state, adding a new twist to a debate in the legislature over whether to forbid the controversial drilling method or extend a moratorium on it for another two years.
Hogan in the past said he would support fracking in Western Maryland if he believed it could be done safely. At a hastily called news conference Friday, he said he did not think there was a way to frack safely, and therefore would support a ban.'
This is a breaking news story. It will be updated soon.
