Pictures From The West, Texas Fertilizer Plant Explosion
On April 17, 2013, a devastating explosion at the West Fertilizer Company in West, Texas, resulted in one of the most tragic industrial accidents in recent U.S. history. The explosion, caused by ammonium nitrate, occurred while emergency services were responding to a fire at the facility. The catastrophic event claimed 15 lives and injured more than 160 people. In addition, over 150 buildings were either damaged or destroyed, significantly impacting the small Texas town near Waco. Investigators later determined that the fire leading to the explosion was intentionally set, adding a layer of complexity to the tragedy. Rescue efforts following the explosion were extensive, with workers combing through rubble to find survivors and assess the extent of the damage.   |

Rumor is that it was John King's career.
