MASON COUNTY, Wash. — An air compressor exploded out of a Mason County auto garage Saturday night, launching itself 300 feet into the air.
According to Mason County Fire, the compressor's relief valve failed, causing the compressor to over-pressurize.
The air compressor appeared to have been built by the owners of the shop.
The compressor landed on the same piece of property.
The shop, located in the 7700 block of Shelton Matlock road, reported minor property damage -- no injures occurred.
