15 Dead In Tragic Texas Plant Explosion (Video)
A fire and explosion at the West Fertilizer Company in West, Texas killed
at least 15 people and leveled many homes yesterday. Over 160 people
were also injured and reports indicate rescuers are still searching
for survivors of the blaze, as many have been reported missing.
The
Associated Press describes West, Texas as, "A flat farming
community 20 miles from Waco" with "2,800" residents.
This incident is another reminder of the potency of fertilizer, which
has been used in many makeshift bombs by terrorists.
