Title: Fire in Poland Twp?
Post by: sfc_oliver on March 30, 2014, 02:43:03 PM
Took this picture from my window last night, a neighbor said it was from a well fire. I assume the fraking well that was shut down? Anyone know what happened last night near the PA Border off 224?

It probably is from the Hilcorp well that was shut down.  Here is the link to the story that ran on WKBN and WYTV on Friday morning.
