Seventy people were injured. A gasoline truck was making a delivery in the alley behind the plant, when a valve on the truck was sheared off by a garbage can allowing the gasoline to flow freely. The fuel leaked into the basement of the facility where it ignited causing a series of explosions. The company's president ran back into the rubble apparently to rescue those trapped inside. He was killed.
