Three people are being sought on felony warrants for their alleged role in the explosion in Van Zandt County last week that injured two people.

Van Zandt County Fire Marshal Chuck Allen said his office has issued warrants for three individuals responsible for the explosion and fire at the Three Folks Operating Company, LLC, near Van, Texas last Tuesday.

Allen said the warrants are for Criminal Mischief-Over $200,000, which is a first degree felony and criminal trespass of a critical infrastructure, which is a Class A misdemeanor.

Allen said those being sought are identified as HR Price, Heather Wolfe, and Brandy Wolfe.

A man and a woman were injured in the explosion last week, but their status is unknown at this time.

Anyone with information on the whereabouts of these individuals is urged to call Van Zandt County Crimestoppers at (903)567-7867.
