At about 4 a.m. on Aug. 10, 2008, a huge explosion occurred at Sunrise Propane on Murray Road, northwest of Wilson Avenue and Dufferin Street, when vapours ignited during a risky truck-to-truck transfer of propane. The blast killed Sunrise employee Parminder Singh Saini, 25, immediately. Fire Division Chief Bob Leek, 55, who was on vacation but responded to the emergency, collapsed and died of a heart attack. In addition to forcing about 12,500 residents from their homes, the blast closed a 16-kilometre stretch of Hwy. 401 for 15 hours. Last month, Sunrise directors Shay Ben-Moshe and Valerie Belahov were found guilty on a number of workplace safety and environmental protection charges. They will be sentenced Dec. 9. Meanwhile, a year ago, Ontario Court Justice Carolyn Horkins ruled that a civil class action lawsuit can proceed against Sunrise Propane Energy Group Inc., the Technical Standards and Safety Authority (TSSA) and a number of suppliers to Sunrise.

Mural showing roots of Lawrence Heights to be unveiled Friday A mural created by Lawrence Heights youth will be unveiled Friday. The mural will be shown off at Lawrence Heights Community Centre, 5 Replin
Rd., from 5 to 6 p.m. An Art Starts and StreetARToronto initiative, the mural, titled Deep Roots, Limitless Heights, was created under the mentorship of artist
Joshua Barndt. The mural focuses on the history of Lawrence Heights from its development in the late 1950s as a unique affordable housing community, to
the present day, as it prepares to undergo a massive transformation through revitalization. It pays homage to the deep roots grown through the hard work, creativity and
struggle of the residents over the past six decades, and looks forward to the opportunities made possible through the community-driven revitalization process.
