Excerpts from nbcchicago.com:
At around 4 p.m. the Arlington Heights Police and Fire departments responded to the area of Derbyshire and Euclid avenues after a garbage truck powered by compressed natural gas partially exploded.
Debris was scattered along the street as a tow truck prepared to remove the garbage truck. Two police officers and one firefighter were injured by flying debris and sustained a “post-blast concussion.” All three were transported to an area hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
Authorities said it’s believed that one of the compressed natural gas tanks on the truck exploded. Truck parts landed several blocks away, and a shockwave caused substantial property damage to nearby homes.
