OAKVILLE'S BEST REAL ESTATE SECTION INSIDE! Beaver THE OAKVILLE A member of Metroland Media Group Ltd. Vol. 47 No. 97 Always All that jazz the risk By David Lea OAKVILLE BEAVER STAFF Could it happen here? That's the question many people across the GTA and throughout Canada are asking after a Toronto propane plant exploded early Sunday morning sending a volcanic blast into the air and nearby residents fleeing from their homes. In Oakville's case, the question of whether this could happen here was answered about 30 years ago with a definitive `yes.' Police round up bullets By David Lea OAKVILLE BEAVER STAFF The Halton Regional Police Service is attempting to grab up all the lead-free training ammunition it can after receiving news that an international shortage of the sought after bullets could soon limit the supply available. In a report to the Halton Police Services Board, on Friday, Police Chief Gary Crowell noted that he had authorized the purchase of 500,000 rounds of training ammunition for a total expenditure not to exceed $108,593. "This acquisition was an over-expenditure of the Training Bureau approved budget," said Crowell in the report.
