Explosives Permit Not Obtained At Fatal Plant Blast
St Louis fire officials say the Universal Match plant lacked a permit to handle hazardous materials when a Thursday blast killed five and injured 34. Fire Marshal Bergmaty noted inquiries into the explosion, which may resemble a dust event rather than a gas blast. Coroner’s office hired an explosives engineer to lead the inquest as investigations by police, the grand jury, and Universal Match Corp. proceed. The blast’s cause remains under review.
