An emergency worker with Bombardier, which has a facility in the area, said he saw houses on fire. The worker, who did not want to be identified, also said he saw propane tanks dropping from the sky.
Police brought in buses to take residents out of the area to the Yorkdale shopping centre southeast of the scene of the explosions. It was not immediately known how widespread the evacuation was or how many residents were involved.

Who's bright idea was it to put a propane factory in a place like that? Here's the story on CNN by the way:

It's funny how they actually care that cars are on fire. I'm glad not many people were killed though.

Guys, I think it's Mario on a new Roid

The whole time I watched that video, I was thinking: "Lucky *******s at the propane place don't have to go to work tomorrow."

I want my work to burn to the ground.

In science class last year, we were doing labs on a computer. One lab was about an explosion in Washington that occured within a marshmallow factory. We were trying to figure out the magnitude of the explosion, or something like that. Anyways, the caption said, "That must have made a pretty big toasted marshmallow." Typical teacher humor, whatever. Well, when I got home, I looked it up on the internet. Turns out 18 people died.
