Question: Major Explosion in Manhattan
Telephone call with client | 7/18/2007 | RinaseaofD's

Posted on 07/18/2007 3:01:43 PM PDT by RinaseaofDs

I just hung up with a client located on the E40's in Manhattan. Tons of sirens to the point where he felt compelled to check on what was up.

He came back to the phone and said there had just been a massive explosion near their building, and that they were evacuating.

Any NYC Freepers have any information on this? Happened at 6 PM EDT or there abouts.

We will have to wait & see what is really happening. It could be just an accident of some sort.

“UN Complex?”

Is this wishful thinking?
