Originally published on July 30, 2013<br /><br />Seven people were injured, at least three critically, after dozens of explosions rocked a propane tank servicing plant in central Florida, northwest of Orlando, late on Monday.<br />According to Reuters, "No one outside the plant was hurt by the blasts, which began at about 10:30 p.m. local time at the Blue Rhino propane gas filling station in the town of Tavares, about 40 miles northwest of Orlando, said John Herrell, a Lake County sheriff's spokesman."<br /><br />"Fifteen workers out of the two dozen on duty were initially reported missing, but all subsequently were found unscathed, Herrell said. Two others were safe from the outset.<br /><br />"'Obviously it was a very, very dangerous scene' when firefighters arrived, Herrell said.<br />The chain reaction of explosions, ripping through 20-pound propane cylinders one after another — one tank every few seconds at its peak — unleashed tall columns of flames into the night sky. Homeowners several miles away reported feeling shocks from the explosions.<br /><br />--------------------------------------------------------<br /><br />TomoNews is your daily source for top animated news.
