2 dead, 2 injured in Gulf oil rig fire

[Rain]

Last report I read said the maintenance crew was using a cutting torch on a 3" pipe when the explosion happened. 4 men had already been removed from the platform as standard operating procedure. 11 were taken off safely. 11 more are in area hospitals. 2 are still missing.

All taken from Coast Guard interview just heard on the local radio (crew member status) and Huffington Post article.(cause of the accident)
