VIDEO: A story about airport troubles being relayed by a customer in the back of Esteban Torres’ rideshare car quickly got drowned out by the sound of a fiery explosion early Tuesday morning. He was shuttling that customer home when they both noticed a ball of flames about a quarter-mile ahead on Northeast Loop 410 near Austin Highway. A dashboard camera inside Torres’ car also captured the moment, along with commentary from Torres and his customer. “Even in the video my reaction was kind of monotone. I didn’t know how to react,” Torres told KSAT 12 News, hours later. “I’ve never seen anything like that before.” San Antonio police said investigators still are not sure what went wrong.
