On April 17, 2013, an explosion occurred about 7:50 p.m. CDT (00:50 UTC, April 18) at the West Fertilizer Company storage and distribution facility in West, Texas, 18 miles (29 km) north of Waco, Texas.The number of dead is not known, but it is estimated that 35 people, including 10 emergency services personnel, died in the explosion.


The facility first caught fire, then exploded as firefighters were attempting to douse the flames.

It is not known what caused the blast.
 
I see many lawsuits down the road.
