Two Injured In Explosion At GM Battery

Two GM employees suffered injuries at the company's Warren, Michigan battery research facility following an explosion and a small fire. Emergency crews were called to the scene at 8:45 A.M Wednesday, and found a small fire as well as two injured employees.

One was treated at the scene for injuries, while another was taken to hospital with injuries that were not life threatening. According to authorities, a battery exploded after undergoing "extreme testing". The lithium-ion batteries were said to be unrelated to those used in the Chevrolet Volt (seen above, undergoing testing).
