iambumbo Posted October 23, 2009 #1 Share Posted October 23, 2009 News just trickling in about an explosion to a petroleum facility near the San Juan bay. Possible connection to a missing Spirit Airlines flight. If true, say a prayer for those lost souls. http://www.inquisitr.com/44141/explosion-near-san-juan-puerto-rico-believed-to-be-crashed-spirit-airlines-flight-837/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linda&Mike Posted October 23, 2009 #3 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Thank goodness it isn't a plane crash! Hopefully this doesn't spike our gas prices even more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtalum Posted October 23, 2009 #4 Share Posted October 23, 2009 It wasn't a plane crash. That was a stupid rumor started by a blogger. There is a refinery fire, though, and it's not likely to be extinguished for days at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted October 23, 2009 #5 Share Posted October 23, 2009 http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,569248,00.html?test=latestnews No reports here on any plane crash involved. No plane crashes or missing airline flights on CNN or NBC, except for the NW Air overshooting the Minn STP airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keithww Posted October 23, 2009 #10 Share Posted October 23, 2009 After spending forty years on the Texas gulf coast I loved reading this quote. "The fuel company told authorities that all of its employees who were at the plant are safe," Rodriguez said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
