Transformer Explodes, Starts Backyard Fire Near KICKS 105

It was just a few short weeks ago when a drunk driver on Raguet Street lost control of their vehicle and took out our radio station sign, destroyed some shrubbery, and mangled our huge station generator.

So, when I heard a large pop just outside the KICKS 105 Control Room window, I was hoping that history wasn't repeating itself.  As the employees of KICKS 105 ventured outside, we noticed some smoke coming from a few houses down the road.  In just a few minutes, the Lufkin Fire Department arrived and quickly extinguished the blaze.

No word on what caused the transformer to blow.
