The Garland County Sheriff's Office says the fire burned two acres of land with minimal structural damage and no reported injuries or deaths.

JESSIEVILLE, Ark. — Garland County Emergency Management said a pipeline ruptured along Highway 298, creating an explosion and igniting a fire in Jessieville on Wednesday.

"Whenever it went off, I really didn't know what it was," Adam Merriott said on the explosion."At first, I was like, 'Did they drop a bomb or what?' because it was really just that loud. There were vibrations everywhere." "We have had a pipeline rupture here before," Garland County Sheriff's Office Public Information Officer John Schroeder said."I don't know exactly when it was, but it was in this area on the other side of the highway, so this has happened before, but they're fairly rare."

Jessieville High School officials confirmed that the school district's safe room between the sports arena and the back of the elementary school was used for people to seek shelter during the emergency.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders is facing scrutiny over the purchase of a $19,000 lectern and the handling or records surrounding it. A legislative panel next week will take up a lawmaker's request for an audit to review the purchase of the lectern in June with a state credit card. The Arkansas Republican Party reimbursed the state last month for the blue and wood-paneled lectern. Sanders has said she welcomes the audit but has dismissed questions about its purchase as a manufactured controversy. An attorney has said he has a client who has firsthand knowledge that records regarding the lectern were altered before release.
