Explosion at US Weapons Manufacturing Facility in Arkansas Injures Two, One Missing

A spokesperson for General Dynamics confirmed that two people were injured and one person is missing following an explosion this morning at its Arkansas weapons facility. The explosion, related to “pyrotechnics” or explosives, occurred around 8:15 a.m., according to spokesperson Berkley Whaley.

The US facility is involved in the Hellfire and Javelin missile programs for the U.S. military, among other munitions projects.

A local Judge, Floyd Nutt, mentioned that county personnel were initially not allowed on the premises by General Dynamics for unknown reasons. He described the incident as a major event, noting that it was the first of its kind at the plant, which handles warheads and explosives.

Explosion at a plant that handles warheads and explosives. Absolutely not surprising. Especially if the managers are asking workers to pick up the pace.

I'll wait for the story about the Finnish man who mauled a polar bear.

According to the link post, first explosion at the plant.

Once is an accident, twice a coincidence, third time enemy action. Any more skip over the second and go directly to enemy action or incompetence.

They've update the article here:

Basically pulled the video since it had nothing to do with the incident.
I was wondering why it was dark at 8:30.
