All's Well.......

Many downtown workers might have noticed that the Reading Fire Department responded to a call at the site of our construction project at Third Street and Court Streets. Apparently flames and thick black smoke were pretty visible. As soon as we heard about it, Franki and I raced down there as well.

The sandwich truck that comes each morning and sells food to the workers on the site apparently exploded and was engulfed in flames. Fortunately, no one was hurt. The young lady driving the truck escaped right before things got out of hand. The Reading Fire Department (which is right across the street) had things under control quickly. Chief Rehr told us that the propane in the truck had leaked and started the fire.

Everybody is fine, as best we could tell there was no damage beyond the truck and work resumed pretty quickly.
