Train car rolls out of control, Las Vegas with Chlorine gas

Action news 13 reports on TV, that a train car with chlorine gas rolls out of control for 45 minutes, and is stopped by local authorities by throwing a big piece of wood underneath its wheels.

What bugs me is I can't find it on their website, but they are reporting it on the news cast.

Also Bullets are scarce here in the valley due to the war on Terror.

Are these events related? IF you take a leap, maybe.

Was this possibly sabotage regarding the train? If it was who? Why? Was this a foiled terrorism attempt?

If True...

Why was a railroad tank car of chlorine gas left unattended long enough that it was able to begin rolling at all?

What, or even more worrisome, who, caused the tank car to start rolling?

The folks in charge of these things do realize that Iraqi "insurgents" have utilized tank trucks filled with chlorine as weapons of mass murder, right?

If some "bright bulb" of a terrorist had employed this tanker as weapon of convenience, would THAT have made the evening MSM news?!

Here's the link to the story.

Let me add that I really don't think that this is a malicious act. I would be more inclined to believe that it was pure negligence.
