Decatur Tank Car Blast Kills Two More, Total Four
A massive tank car explosion in Decatur Illinois has killed two more men, bringing the total to four dead and at least 140 injured. The victims are Norfolk and Western engineer Bobby W. Olinger and switchman Clyde Rucker, both in their 20s. National Guard units helped police, but operations were winding down as residents cleaned rubble. Authorities attributed the blast to a spark igniting leaking liquid petroleum from a tank car, causing extensive property damage estimated at 0.72 million dollars and shattering windows miles away, with a new high school gym destroyed near the yards.
