You may remember the story a few years ago about a propane explosion that leveled a home in the Waterloo area. This week, a jury awarded more than $1.7-million to the homeowners, one of whom was badly burned. Sixty-eight-year-old Donna Figard and her husband, Richard, claimed propane provider New Century FS didn't do enough to warn them about the limits of odor-causing chemicals injected into the gas as a warning and didn't adequately warn them about the importance of leak detectors. Jurors found the propane company 40-percent at fault for the explosion.
