BALTIMORE, MD - A woman from Perry Hall is reportedly paying out of pocket in the aftermath of a steam explosion in Baltimore that covered her car in debris.

Michelle Muir went to watch the Orioles game on June 20 and parked their 2002 Honda Accord nearby, according to Fox 45.

A steam pipe exploded in the area of South Eutaw Street between Lombard and Pratt streets approximately 0.4 mile from Camden Yards, where the Baltimore Orioles played the Cleveland Indians that evening.

The windows were smashed out, the hood was dented and the damage was estimated to be nearly $2,000, Fox 45 reported.
