2 Texas Natural Gas Explosions in 2 Days Kill 3 Workers


Posted on Jun 25, 2010

June 25, 2010 - Texas was the location of 2 fatal natural gas explosions in 2 days, resulting in the deaths of 3 construction workers.

The first accident occurred on June 21 in Cleburne, which is southwest of Dallas, when a pipeline exploded while some utility workers were digging nearby. One of the workers was killed in the explosion.

The second natural gas accident occurred the next day in the panhandle near the Oklahoma border. In this incident, a pipeline exploded when a bulldozer struck it while 5 workers were nearby removing clay from a pit. As a result, 2 workers were killed and another 3 injured. One of those injured workers was transported by helicopter to an Oklahoma City hospital. The other workers sustained non-life-threatening injuries according Lipscomb County Sheriff James Robertson.

Natural gas explosions are just one of the many potential accidents that occur on Texas construction sites. Unfortunately, Workers' Compensation is usually not enough to fully compensate you for medical bills, lost wages, and other expenses pertaining to serious or permanent injuries.

It is also possible that you may be able to seek compensation from a liable third-party for their role in your construction site accident and injuries. The only way to know what legal options are available to you is to contact an experienced Houston construction accident attorney.

The law office of Steve Lee, located in Houston, TX has years of experience helping construction accident victims and their families recover the compensation they need and deserve. Contact us today to discuss your construction accident claim - 1-800-232-3711.
