Nursing Home Collapse! Elderly trapped, 100s feared buried/burned alive

How could this happen?

It may be connected to some "fertilizer plant" explosion... but who puts a NURSING HOME near industrial plants?

Yep! we sure do look after the elderly dont we.

A nursing home has collapsed after having been on fire for more than an hour. It is not yet known if people were trapped inside. But emergency crews had been evacuating the building for some time before the collapse.

A nursing home burning for over 1 hour?

What's fueling it.. Depends? In all seriousness I just don't understand it how the fire could be burning for so long, it's not like they're out in the boonies.. are they??

Such vulnerable people - this is going to be a bad one! God Bless them!

Why would you put your family in a nursing home?

Because you don't want to deal with them.

And that's the truth

I would never put my my family through that.

I feel sorry for them.

Like you said in your op, why is a nursing home so close to a chemical plant?

reply to post by Manhater


Agreed

Oh wow, didnt think it would be that close that the fertilizer would fuel it.

Gotta look at some maps or somethin...
