Just a few miles from here. Heard all sorts of syreens going off and turned on the local news.

There's gonna be a big uproar now. Still not clear about the extent of injuries/death at this point.

Yeah it's on the news. Looks like it hit an apartment complex.

[BlueStreak]

Yep. And a few houses. Went right through them.

Good thing they dumped the fuel before hitting eject. It saved lives.

Standard proceedure when an emergency occurs over populated areas.

This was later corrected. No houses were hit, just the apartment buildings.
And, amazingly, no one was killed, no serious injuries. Most excellent!
