The towering flame has greatly subsided, four days after a vehicle drove through a fence and struck an above-ground valve, causing a massive pipeline explosion.

The white SUV drove through a fence on the west side of the Walmart parking lot and struck an above-ground pipeline valve around 10 a.m. Monday. A fire erupted and residual product from the isolated pipeline has continued to burn off.

A fire at a Texas pipeline continues after an SUV crash, with Energy Transfer monitoring air quality and residents still displaced.
