Bozeman Explosion
This morning at 8 am an explosion completely demolished several buildings in downtown Bozeman. Five businesses were completely destroyed, including the Rocking R Bar, a fairly popular destination in downtown Bozeman.
I went downtown twice today to see what was happening. It was definitely a dramatic scene, centered around a giant column of dark smoke. Police officers and firefighters were all over he place as crowds gathered at every street corner to try to get a better view.
A before and after picture of the area.
Hey Man,
I’m really glad you are OK. Tomas said a lot of windows were blown out by the explosion perhaps that is what happened at Ro Sham Bo?
Dang. I presume everyone’s ok?? These are great shots, BTW. You should be a photog for the AP.
Rebecca: There is apparently one person who is missing. I’m not sure what
that means. It doesn’t sound good though.
Luke: Yeah, I thought those windows might have been blown out too. But that building is about 3 blocks down and around the corner, which seems like it would be out of the way enough.
