Hello Arw3a.
That link needs registration.
Could you tell me what the local news url would be?
I looked around and haven't located any news article regarding this explosion yet.

Did you hear about Billie Jo McAllister?
Nothing on Channel 9 yet ( http://www.newsok.com )
Still checking other local links...
This is what I know:
At about 10:10 CST there was an explosion that was heard in Norman. Channel 5, out of OKC, broke into the MNF game around 10:30 and reported that an explosion had happened in Choctaw. They followed-up after the game and reported the gunpowder smell and the elemtary school. There is nothing on either Channel 5's or 9's websites about the incident so I can't offer anything further. This is all I know.
Thanks and I'm done with this thread unless there are some updates.
Don't call me Shirley.
Silly me...I was just cleaning my cathode bazooka and the darned thing just went off.
But it's all okay! I'm only tinkering with this baby now...
P.S. -- Sorry about the Tunguska thing and the Hindenburg. Honest mistake.
Please ping me if there are any developments.
Town of Choctaw devastated. Damage estimated at $1,132.15. /sarc
...said he'd be pleased to have dinner on Sunday...oh, by the way...
Ah, must have been the TG&Y or the OTASCO store.
Aerlex didn't move their former fireworks factory from Hallett to Choctaw, did they?

Well, you laugh, but the library is a total loss. Tragic that -- two of the books hadn't even been colored in yet.
