    Apparently there were some issues about asbestos lingering in the air even several hours following the explosion. Hopefully no one was breathing too deeply!

    I felt it, 15 000 people had to leave their homes if they lived within 1.5 km of the site.

    District Chief Bob Leek died at that call

    He's a 25 years veteran of the Toronto Fire Dept.

    There are no details out yet as to how it happened.


    Also, part of the neighbourhood around the blast site has been quaranteened as the explosions have blown asbestos into the air, so the people cannot regain their houses until the Dept of Environment clears them.
