The massive pipeline explosion that shot a fireball over 1,000 feet in the air and sent flames tearing across a California neighborhood is seeing its first class-action lawsuit. The horrific accident killed eight and devastated 37 homes and is being blamed on Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E), said Mercury News, citing the lawsuit. Scores were injured and dozens of other homes were damaged. A power outage at the utility preceded the blast.

Now, Daniele DiTrapani, a resident of the San Bruno neighbored hit by the explosion just filed a lawsuit in the San Mateo County Superior Court for unspecified damages to be paid to him and others, said Mercury News. Another, prior, lawsuit filed September 17th, also by a San Bruno resident, is seeking to have the utility relinquish control of a $100 million victims fund to an independent third-party, noted Mercury News.

According to the lawsuit, DiTrapani was at home on September 9th, when the blast occurred; he “has been injured and suffered damages,” according to the lawsuit, quoted Mercury News.

This lawsuit is the second class-action against the utility in the days following the explosion and claims PG&E was negligent and that it was the utility’s actions or lack of action that caused the 30-inch pipe to explode, added Mercury News. The complaint also alleges that residents there have been “contaminated by debris, ash, (and) toxins” due to the blast and fire, according to lawsuit documents.
