Gasoline Tanker speeding equals ..............









a fire ball towards homes along Main Street. Which is about 1/2 mile from my house! This happened at around 1:40 am last night. The fire in one of the houses was burning 7 hours later!

They have so far demolished one of the triple deckers... and the other "double" triple deckers is coming down tonight as well. 12-15 families are displaced and main Street and Sweetzer circle ( rotary) is closed and burned to a crisp. 40 cars exploded ! The tanker just filled up with 9,400 gallons of oil at the tankers . We all grew up thinking the LNG tankers would blow up , but we never thought a gas tanker ( 18 wheeler) would create a fire ball. No one was injured- neither people in the homes, tankers, cars, or firefighters !

I woke up early this morning to fire trucks, helicopters, and the scanner going off.... this is something to say a blessing and prayer for LIFE !!
