Explosion at PotBelly restaurant on 7th Street in D.C. just reported on scanner. Closing streets, evacuating other restaurants in area. No clue if gas or other cause. No active fire reported.

Yes, I looked at the link and remembered eating at the one on Fairfax Drive in Arlington.

I don't really know D.C. I'm on a scanner link from PA.

Did someone light a cigar near Ted Kennedy? All that alcohol stocked up in his liver may have ignited.

How does that work? Scanner link...is there a URL somewhere that runs Live Scanner activity???

Might be nice to know in case of crisis somewhere.

C'mon, Let it be in Hollywood, CA..... Too many good people frequent NW Washington DC for all the great Restaurants

Perhaps that might convince the doubting Congress Critters that the Islamist lunatics really do mean to kill us all.

Let THEM sit uncomfortably in their Georgetown Restaurants and homes.

Semper Fi

Agreed. - Till Armageddon, no Shalam, no Shalom.

Just looked at a map and it would be near the MCI Center.
Don't know if there had been a hockey game or concert, etc.

For that matter............. San Fransisco

Just hit the link at the very top of the thread. Takes you right to the scanner link. I've picked these links up from knowledgeable scanner FReepers like BurbankKarl. Someone put this one on the evacuation of Washington Monument thread earlier today. They are addictive.

If it's DC, it's probably a manhole.

7th and H.

Just north of MCI and near the Gallary Place-Chinatown metro stop for both the Red Line and the Yellow/Green line.

Winamp screws my puter up :(

Are you sure it happened in DC? I don't see anything on the news about it.

They don't come over the borders, they come in the Country on student visas and then stay when they expire -- why go across the border when you can come here to study and blow up people -- all in a day's work? (sarcasm)
