Vapor Blast Hurts Two Scientists At Soufriere
A vapor explosion inside La Soufriere volcano on Guadeloupe injured two scientists and showered 12 with rocks. Eleven French and one Briton were near the fissure rim when rocks fell, two helicopters rescued them, and the two injured were in satisfactory condition. American scientists Fiske and Kinoshita were nearby but unharmed. Fiske cited inflation and predicted subsidence as observers noted ash and debris emissions. Authorities evacuated 72,000 residents within six miles as activity continued without a major eruption.
