Survivors may hold key to fire at Clark Refinery
Fire investigators hope three survivors from the Clark Oil Refinery blaze in Blue Island can provide firsthand details to determine the cause. Two workers died from carbon monoxide and smoke inhalation. Investigations consider where the fire started, whether Isomax unit or break room sparked it, as eight refinery units remain closed by court order.
