Smoke billows from a fuel storage facility run by the Caribbean Petroleum Corp. and owned by Gulf in Catano, Puerto Rico, Friday, Oct. 23, 2009. An explosion at the fuel storage facility sent earthquake-force shock waves across Puerto Rico's capital and created a tower of smoke that forced airliners to alter flight paths. No one was reported killed.
