The San Antonio Fire Department command staff will hold its first media briefing Tuesday about the explosion at a Southeast Side business that killed four people.
The briefing is scheduled for 1:30 p.m. at Public Safety Headquarters and it will be livestreamed in this article.
The incident happened at 11:30 p.m. on Friday on the property of K-Bar, a construction company located in the 9700 block of South Presa Street. The ATF and FBI are assisting the San Antonio Fire Department with the investigation — which SAFD officials have called slow and methodical with evidence and materials scattered across the dense property.
The work was complicated by rain on Saturday and Sunday on the flood-prone property with large equipment getting stuck in the mud. Investigators said the explosion happened in an underground concrete structure that goes down about 10 to 15 feet. The blast site became flooded with rainwater that required pumping out before investigators could continue.As of Tuesday morning, the medical examiner’s office has released the identities of two of the four victims:Male, 57 - tentative Identification only
