Gas blast at Grapevine hotel linked to pool heater
Investigators ruled a natural gas leak caused a Friday night explosion at Embassy Suites Outdoor World in Grapevine injuring dozens and seriously burning a man. Sub contractor Thomas E. Marcer remained in serious condition at Parkland Hospital after the blast as authorities noted workers did not know gas was in the line. Fire Marshal Dick Ward said ignition came from an electrical pump or ignitor system on the pool equipment.

Defense officials note rebuilt buildings but emphasize lack of on ground inspections hinders monitoring and a new U N inspectors push is anticipated this fall.
