one dead, two survivors......
ATF is on the scene now and it's being treated as a crime scene. It's ugly.....
 
Sounds worse than ugly.
 
Tweakers.
 
They are claiming there may have been a bomb.....a vendetta....from a perp who was supposed to be sentenced today for something or other. He never showed up at the hearing.......Not sure about the meth house thing, Nate. Hearing all kinds of stuff about it....
 
In this life we dig our own grave.........
 
We had a house blow up in Ohio last year, propane line had a leak and the newly filled tank emptied into the house. Furnace lit and kaboom. We felt that boom 10 miles away, made me sit straight up in bed at 4am. Nothing left of that house either.
 
Clearance to combustibles problem.
 
What's amazing in some of the house gas explosions is that people inside survive.

If you are gonna be in a gas explosion you would prefer to be in the center or at the flash point. The real power is at the outer edge of the explosion.
 
Holy cow. I think I would rather put up with a few drive by's with small arms than a bomb.

Stupid houses you can stay away from...stray bullets from cars can travel to you....so not sure which is worse
 
Reading between the lines, the Shaner guy ratted out his buddies, one of which blew up his house. One thing that sticks out to me is that the prosecutor is related to the defense lawyer. Small town?
