A witness who works at Sound Chemical Solutions located at 731 FM 1127 in Shepherd, claims to have seen a blue flash of light streak down from the sky, moments before containers of phosphoric acid and xylene erupted in a colossal fireball that shook the ground and forced an immediate evacuation of the plant.

The cascading explosion spread to diesel and sulfuric acid containers, producing poisonous clouds of potentially deadly carcinogens. He said he saw a “cobalt lightning pulse lasting only a split second.”

He said five other chemical plant employees witnessed the streak of light and could corroborate his story, though none had photographed or taken video of the alleged DEW strike because it transpired in the blink of an eye. The witness said the chemical plant’s vast array of security cameras should have captured footage of what they had seen. RealRawNews.com.
