Three days before the September 9, 1989 fire at Orion Tower, an unmarked flatbed truck arrived at 03:00 and loaded all three unopened pallets back up. The warehouse workers were explicitly forbidden from unbanding the crates or checking inventory barcodes. Where were those pallets taken? To Ashford Poly?
