ON THIS DAY: In 1981, a series of sewer explosions destroyed more than 13 miles of sewer lines and streets in the center of Louisville. The blasts were caused by ignition of vapors discharged from a soybean processing plant owned by Ralston-Purina. The company subsequently paid the Louisville Metro Sewer District $18 million. Here's WHAS11's coverage of the event. | WHAS11 News
