Fatal explosion at plant 8

[Chris_Dresbach]

Prayer request going out to a few workers at "Green tech recycling" aka Studebaker plant 8. I was just watching the news and saw that an explosion happened at the site when workers were welding on some kind on tank. The blast injured two and killed one. The rest is still under investigation. "Green tech" is a recycling plant that (at least to me) supports Studebakers. I was there a few weekes ago in my '40 and they let me take some pics and take a brick. The plant is directly next door to SI SB. Sad.

Ouch!
Sorry to read of that, Chris.
If possible, would you post a link to the report in The South Bend Tribune when it comes out tomorrow? That will be more comprehensive than anything that appears "down state," and many of us would probably like to read it from the South Bend paper.
Thanks. (Again, sorry to hear of this.) BP
