IDAHO FALLS, Idaho (AP) — Two people were injured in an explosion at an eastern Idaho upholstery business.

The Post Register reports the explosion happened Sunday at Terry & Sons Upholstery Company in Idaho Falls.

Two people who were inside or near the building were taken to a nearby hospital for treatment. Their conditions are unknown, and their names were not released.


This shop does vehicle upholstery, and eight cars were in the building at the time of the explosion.

Since it’s an upholstery shop, my first thought is contact cement solvent vapors reached an ignition source.
