An enormous explosion at the Kissimmee Utility Authority (KUA) last week left two people seriously wounded and one dead. During maintenance at the KUA substation, the workers were inspecting a new transformer which had been installed recently. When the transformer exploded, it led to an enormous blaze, and the contractor nearest the explosion died on the scene. The other two victims were severely burned and remain hospitalized at this time. Colling Gilbert Wright & Carter have been retained as counsel for one of the victims of this explosion.
