One of the first reports I saw stated that they responded to a fire at the facility, thought the fire was put out, then it flared up again. Then later on out of control fire and the eventual explosion. The report we had a bomb go off in here, could have been what caused the fire to initially break out. Because no one in there would have survived that big blast. The second bomb could have also been when the fire broke out a second time. We just do not know.

The Waco police information officer conducting the morning briefing at 4:45 CDT this morning said that they would be treating the fertilizer plant as a crime scene until they ruled out criminal activity.

At that point, if nothing was found, it would convert to an industrial accident investigation.

He went on to say that they have no reason to believe, at this time, it was criminal in nature, but that is the way the investigations will be run.

Maybe so...but I tend to think it was a gut reaction....time will tell.
