Largest US pipeline shuts down after deadly blast in Alabama
- 8 years ago
At least seven people were injured after an explosion and fire at the Colonial Pipeline gasoline company in Shelby Alabama on Monday.
Gigantic plumes of smoke and fireballs could be seen in the air.
Local government officials said a nine-person crew had been conducting maintenance work on the pipeline at the time of the explosion.
The company shut down its main gasoline and distillates pipelines as a result... the second time in two months that it's had to close the crucial supply line which serves the U.S. East Coast.
