BERWYN, Illinois

A fire was raging Thursday afternoon after an explosion destroyed part of a gas station in Berwyn.

More than 2 hours after the explosion, firefighters were still on the scene as a column of flames spewed from the BP station on the NE corner of Ogden & Oak Park Ave, following what was suspected to be a natural gas explosion.

The office and convenience store structure at the gas station appeared to have exploded, & was lying in ruins with some areas aflame.

Witnesses said there were a series of explosions that took place in succession over about 10 minutes.

The witnesses said they felt vibrations from the first explosion as windows were blown out, and then they saw and heard another explosion a few blocks away in an alley — where a second fire took place.

A lightning strike may have been to blame for setting off the chain of events.

Heavy fighting broke out on the border between #Thailand and #Cambodia.

Relations between the two countries have escalated in recent months due to an armed conflict in territory claimed by both sides. The conflict is part of a decades-long border dispute. Similar clashes occurred in 2008 and 2011.

At least 2 civilians were killed, and 7 soldiers were injured by gunfire and artillery fire.
