Recent loud explosions explained

Residents just south of Marion, even some within the city limits, are reporting on social media of hearing explosions over the last few nights. Apparently, said a sheriff's deputy, the noise is coming from a residence on Coleman Road, where someone is shooting tannerite, an explosive used in rifle target practice.

However, Crittenden County Sheriff's Deputy Chuck Hoover said there have been no reports or complaints to Marion's 911 dispatch center.
