Two persons in a car were injured Sunday when an explosion damaged Paul's Dairy in nearby Minford.

Mr. and Mrs. Clay Burns, both 59, of Stockdale were hurt slightly when their car struck a boiler which had just landed in the street outside the one-story building.

Three employees in the building were not hurt.

The owner of the dairy, Paul Poole, said the explosion which caused an estimated $30,000 damage, apparently was caused by malfunction in the boiler.
