Fire roars through Esso tank plant in Newport News
Explosions and flames destroyed 12 oil and gasoline storage tanks at the Esso Standard Co. plant in Newport News. The Hampton Roads facility holds about 5 million gallons.

Heavy smoke rose 200 to 300 feet and covered much of the peninsula. Twelve hours after the blast, firefighters allowed the flames to burn the remaining tanks rather than risk spread.
