Families Seek Justice Following Berks County Explosion: Coroner Confirms All Deaths Accidental, Amidst Allegations of Ignored Gas Leak Warnings at RM Palmer Co.

The Berks County Coroner's Office has disclosed the definitive causes and circumstances of death for the seven individuals who perished in the RM Palmer Co. building explosion and collapse on March 24 in West Reading. Coroner John A. Fielding III identified the victims and confirmed all died from blast injuries, with their deaths being classified as accidental.

The victims are:

• Amy S. Sandoe, 49, Ephrata

• Xiorky D. Nunez, 30, Reading

• Michael D. Breedy, 62, Marion Township

• Diana M. Cedeno, 44, Reading

• Judith Lopez-Moran, 55, Reading

• Domingo Cruz, 60, Reading

• Susan H. Halvonik, 63, Upper Providence Township

Although initially, Nunez's death was attributed to thermal burns, subsequent forensic examinations by Dr. Neil A. Hoffman, MD, determined blast injuries as the cause for all. The finalizations were made in collaboration with various federal and state agencies through medicolegal death investigations. Fielding expressed gratitude towards all agencies and organizations involved in the rescue, recovery, and investigation processes, and affirmed ongoing support for the bereaved families in Berks County.

Moreover, several victims' families have initiated wrongful death lawsuits against RM Palmer Co., alleging negligence as workers reportedly detected and reported a gas odor on the explosion day, which was ostensibly ignored by the company management.

LOCAL SPORTS

EAGLES

Eagles Soar to 5-0 as NFC East Rivals Stumble in Week 5

The Philadelphia Eagles are riding high after not only defeating the Los Angeles Rams and maintaining an undefeated status but also witnessing losses from all three NFC East rivals during Week 5.

The current division standings are:

1. Eagles 5-0

2. Cowboys 3-2

3. Commanders 2-3

4. Giants 1-4

Particularly notable was the Cowboys' significant loss to the San Francisco 49ers.

While the 49ers' strong performance could be a future concern for the Eagles in securing the No. 1 seed, the current focus is on the Eagles' early two-game lead in the division, providing a crucial margin as their schedule intensifies.

PHILLIES

Braves Stage Thrilling Comeback to Even NL Division Series in Game 2 Against Phillies

The Atlanta Braves secured a dramatic 5-4 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies, equalizing the NL Division Series at 1-1 on Monday night. After being hitless until the sixth inning, the Braves made a comeback with two-run homers by Travis d’Arnaud and Austin Riley, and a remarkable game-ending double play.

The Phillies had built a 4-0 lead, but the Braves turned the game around in the seventh and eighth innings. Game 3 is scheduled for Wednesday in Philadelphia, with Aaron Nola set to pitch for the Phillies. The Braves made a crucial lineup change at catcher, which proved beneficial in their comeback.
