Emergency crews are investigating reports of three explosions in Colebrook, NH.

Witnesses said the explosions were felt throughout the town just after 1 p.m. Friday.

People said they saw heavy black smoke coming from the area of what they believe is the Manchester Manufacturing building.

MDM Muzzleloaders in the Manchester Manufacturing building is located on Gould Street.

It is a black powder gun company.

Some injuries.  No deaths reported... good.

black powder.

Let me guess the safety manual is "If something happens. Run"

Sorry to say they're now reporting 2 deaths. OSHA will be knocking.

Obama will use this as a excuse to shut down all ammunition factories.

It's the actual firearm manufacturer, not ammunition supplies, isn't it? And why would border patrol and fish and game be investigating?

They manufactured black powder.  The company is a subsidiary of MDM Muzzleloaders.   The building is TOAST.  Prayers for the families.  This is up in the North Country, about 10 miles (maybe less) from the Canadian border, and in a case like this, they'll pull any law enforcement/fire folks they can get.
