#23: Hutchinson KS Salt Mine Explosion


Listen Later

Jan 17, 2001, Hutchinson Kansas

It is also known as salt city because of the salt mines 600 ft below the surface, covering 980 acres underground.


It was a typical day downtown, when suddenly there was an explosion at a store called Decor. It was a party supply store. And the appliance store, woodies, next door. The blast was so powerful, it shattered windows a block away.
