Broken Arrow man killed when CNG tank bursts
Broken Arrow police say a man working on a pressurized compressed natural gas tank died Thursday morning. Police say Wesley Little was working on the tank early Thursday morning in front of his CNG vehicle shop on North Walnut in Broken Arrow when the tank somehow ruptured. There was no explosion or fire, but the force of the pressure being released was enough to throw Little roughly 25 feet through the air, causing massive internal injuries and, ultimately, his death. “It would be the equivalent of a vehicle hitting you at 35 miles an hour in the chest,” Tony Griffith, electrical engineer and mechanic with CNG Oklahoma Auto Sales in Tulsa, said.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!
