Not sure of any details, but just saw reports of a large explosion at the Vatican

ETA: or it could just be a fire in Rome (insert Rome burning joke here)
Thanks for the heads up. Not much info out there yet. Hope it’s less than it seems.
BNONews seems to be on top of the story.
The Daily News with news and video.
Sky News is saying a fire at a Car Garage outside the Vatican.
Someone said this said fire at car dismantler. Google translate seems to back that up, though mostly unintelligible.
EDIT: And BNO now says fire at scrap yard, too.
I can see that. “Fire” and “explosion” are practically the same thing.
Likewise, “scrap yard” and “Vatican.” 
Apparently the scrap yard is very close to the Vatican. If someone is looking at rising smoke from a few miles away, I could understand the initial confusion.
Sort of like those flashing red lights inside the White House a couple nights ago. Turned out to be from emergency vehicles responding to a medical situation in the park across the street.
So what color was the smoke?
Orange!!! :eek:
And we have a new car!
But… but… that’s the new black!
Bob Barker just got elected Pope?
SURE it was! 
@midnight posited it was Trump trying out a new tanning bed.
Now I’m picturing a junkyard full of old Popemobiles.
ETA: Only driven by a little old [del]lady[/del] Pope on Sundays…
Whose the next contestant on “The Salvation’s Right”?
Do we have a press release naming the Anti-Christ yet?
Or, in this case, the Anti-Chrysler?

Are the cattle safe?
