PHILADELPHIA – A propane tank on a food truck exploded in north Philadelphia Tuesday, sending a huge fireball into the sky and injuring at least 11 people, including two who suffered serious burns, police said.

He said that four others were listed in stable condition at area hospitals and at least five others were treated and released.

There’s a lot of stored energy in those propane tanks.

The irony is that by blowing up, it saved more people than it hurt.

Maybe that’s why Heisenberg upgraded from an RV-based biz to a termite-extermination-based biz.

If something blows up, it won’t be his truck.

It’ll be someone else’s home. :)

Propane can be deadly. Anyone remember the HOLIDAY ON ICE explosion back in 1963? It killed 74 people.

Sadly, it’s been a bad couple of weeks for North Philly food establishments.
