Two Explosions Shake St Paul Store and Fire
In St Paul Minnesota on November 19 two massive explosions rocked a storefront, blowing out the plate glass and scattering debris across Robert Street. A second blast followed minutes later, wrecking the front of the store and triggering a fire. Two women narrowly escaped near the display window. The cause remains uncertain though a store magazine holds limited powder.
