Sensory Effects Fire In Defiance

An explo­sion Fri­day at Sen­sory Effects in Defi­ance sent two peo­ple to the hos­pi­tal.

It hap­pened around 4:30 Fri­day after­noon inside the West High Street plant, when a dryer caught fire accord­ing to employ­ees.

Shane Span­gler suf­fered burns and was taken to ProMed­ica Defi­ance Hos­pi­tal, and then flown to Mercy St. Vin­cent Med­ical Cen­ter in Toledo for fur­ther treat­ment.
