EXPLOSION DESTROYS INDIANA COUNTY BUILDING

An explosion touched off a fire and destroyed a building in Indiana County yesterday afternoon.  Iselin-West Lebanon fire officials say they were sent out at 2:51 PM and found a large fire, additional explosions and a large debris field.  Officials say that maintenance projects were going on at a natural gas compressor when the property owner ran away before the explosions.   Multiple tankers were requested due to water supply issues, and crews also had to deal with a lot of hot spots due to flying burning debris over a three-acre area.
