Explosion in Maraval?

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

witnesses are saying it is Burger King and NOT El Pecos

[acesinghit]

based on the photo posted by user RHD, it appears there is fire below the a/c unit behind the Burger King area. Could be a combo of both rented units..

[Xplode]

eyewitness reports kitchen utensils all on top Massy Store roof , debris from the blast

r.i.p el pecos/burger king

[RBphoto]

Just when you thought you going to eat ah dead...

I don't know why I feel unsettled that the person who died probably died hungry.

[Coppershot]

The pic shows debris outside el pecos and nothing in front of burger king.
Possibly fire spread to burger king after.

One year to the date...strange coincidence...

Yeah def looks like El Pecos got blown up. I am shocked there are not more deaths. That is real hard. Going for lunch and never come back out

[redmanjp]

Should wear fire suit if going to buy lunch now then

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

Seems they were changing or filling a LPG tank at El Pecos?

Unofficial fire service man on the scene says an LPG tank in Pecos exploded.
11 rushed to hospital. 1 person unaccounted for.
Well the info is unofficial, he is officially a fireman.

The gas tank was being changed or filled when the gas connection exploded the other gas guy ran out to turn off the vehicle outside and boom. No one knows exactly what happened except the guy who was changing the tank

[redmanjp]

And that's the guy that dead I guess - he would have been the closest one to the tank

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

Hearing 5 dead and 12 injured?
Can anyone confirm?

Seems the fire is spreading fast.

[Arcmanov]

Wow.

There's bad luck, then there's Stark luck...then there's El Pecos luck.

Not wrong. Just more appliances on the way. Real Gangsta drive.

[eurotuner]

Give thanks fi life, i woulda be strollin in dey to get the usual rong that time, coulda be anybody here too. Sucks, gas tank man prob was blown into smithereens.

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

Update

7 injuries 4 serious 3 minor. Still 2 unaccounted for fire services just went inside

[PapaC]

Well earlier a Pecos worker was in i95, and claimed everybody who worked there was accounted for.

He said that he heard the gas leaking from outside and turned of their stoves and gas inside, and 5 seconds later was boom bang. He also claimed that the gas man didn't come and tell them that the gas leaking.

[R-H-D]

traffic clear roads open back
Looks like a Gas tanker could be the cause of fire since police put tape around it in Bagshot
