Reports have come in this afternoon from ABC and CT, of an explosion and fire at a medical waste disposal facility in Mitchell. Three workers were seriously injured by exploding aerosol cans, and are currently in hospital receiving treatment for burns.

So was this dodgy disposal of unused aerosol cans? The Darwin’s Law in effect?? Silly season prank gone wrong???
