Two Dead After Lee County Gas Explosion
(Dixon, IL) — Investigators say it appears that workers dug a little too deep in a Lee County field and touched off a natural gas explosion that killed two people. The blast rocked the field between Dixon and Rochelle yesterday morning. Lee County Sheriff John Simonton says two other people were hurt in the blast, and one of them was listed in critical condition last night.
