DOW JONES NEWSWIRES At least three people were killed when a gas pipeline exploded and caught fire near Granbury, Texas, about 40 miles southwest of Fort Worth, reports the Star-Telegram. WFAA-TV reported 10 people missing. Fire Chief Clint Ishmael of Cleburne told CNN that firefighters were trying to find a valve to cut off the flow in the line, since they had no other way to extinguish the blaze immediately.
