Narrative:

At approximately 2500 ft after takeoff, a loud boom and yaw came from the left side of the aircraft. The itt on the #1 engine was approximately 980 degrees C. Declaring an emergency, we informed ATC what had happened and we wanted to return to cvg. After completing the QRH procedures to shut the engine down, we contacted dispatch to inform them of our situation. We also contacted the flight attendant and passenger as to what was happening. We informed them we had shut the #1 engine down and we would be returning to cvg for an uneventful landing. We stated crash fire rescue equipment would be meeting the flight for precautionary measures and we were not planning to evacuate/evacuation the aircraft unless I told them otherwise. All checklists were completed and an uneventful landing was accomplished. We returned to the gate. Crash fire rescue equipment met the flight.
