Hurricane Arthur, Gas Leak Cause of Food Truck Explosion, Fumo Denied Special Privileges

Arthur has strengthened into a hurricane. The first hurricane of the 2014 season is making its way up the east coast with winds over 75 miles per hour. The eye of the storm is expected to pass Kitty Hawk North Carolina tomorrow morning and pass Jersey beaches offshore about 8 pm Friday. As a Category 1 hurricane, Arthur will bring heavy rain, high winds and dangerous rip currents.

The food truck explosion in Feltonville that injured 13 people Wednesday is being blamed on a propane leak and heat from the grill in the truck. The propane leak created a vapor cloud that was ignited by the flame on the cooking grill. Five people remain in critical condition including the truck owner, her daughter, two other relatives and a 23 year old man.

Vince Fumo was denied special travel privileges by federal prosecutors on Wednesday. The convicted former Pennsylvania State Senator is currently in a halfway house completing his sentence on corruption charges. Fumo requested the ability to travel without advance notice. The court ruled “There is no reason that Fumo should be treated differently from any other defendant, simply because he owns or controls more homes than the average convicted defendant.”
