I just heard a secound person is dead, sounds like a father and son from the excavating or trucking company. It sounds like someone hit a above ground live line which was clearly marked.

Yes a second one has passed away. He went to school with my brother in law up there.
My sister and husband live and farm at White Fox.
Sad these things happen, we just have to be careful guys.
Yes they were both father and son of the backhoe and gravel company up there.
The name given was Boxall or something sounding like that.

Yeah boxall is the right name. I heard today that the latest rumour is they did hit a line, and there was natural gas leaking. They went and told the owenr of the meat shop to kill his pilot lights out, and somehow the ones on his fridges got missed.
Thats just the latest rumour i have no idea how true it is.

Yeah I dont get why they hit it either when it was clearly marked. Thats a huge part of what caused this whole mess. It doesnt help that it got ignited either!
