Savannah Sugar refinery explodes!!

(1/4) > >>

Well it looks like my town made the National News with the sugar refinery exploding.
First I have to say the news media, even the local news is so vague its amazing.
This plant is about a mile from my house, and I actually drove past this plant about 5 minutes before it exploded. As soon as I walked through the door and hit the fridge my house shook for about 2 seconds. Within 5 minutes my phone rang notifying me about it and you could see the smoke coming from the place. What gets me is that around 9pm last night I knew there were about 17 to 20 people MIA. The news reported up until noon today that the count was at around six.... then at noon decided to give a more realistic number at 17. But mark my words there is more to this story than what is being reported. All I heard all night was helicopters and sirens, and the FBI came in swarms. There are 32 people they had to fly out to the burn unit in augusta ga who are in critical shape.... its really a terrible trajedy. For the religoius people on the site pray for their families, its going to be rough for alot of people around here.

I heard about this last night.  Up here in Griffin we get the Atlanta affiliates and something don't sound right.  It wasn't even the top story at the 11pm news.  You would figure 17 people killed would be a major story.  it was like "in other news, a sugar plant exploded in Savannah.  There are multiple fatalities.  Now a check on the weather." 

Really, it was just like that.  Champ, isn't that place close to the Savannah River plant?
