Three Texas counties asked to shelter in place after a massive chemical plant explosion.
Pictures and videos of the smoke and chemical fire caused by an explosion at Sound Resource Solutions in Shepherd, Texas, look like something out of a movie but are, in fact, real. The explosion took place at about 8:13AM local time in the area northeast of Houston.
KHOU11 reports that nearby Rockland, Chester, and Colmesneil counties are in the path of the smoke plume, and residents have been asked to stay inside and turn off all HVAC systems.
According to local news station ABC 13, one employee at the plant was injured in a “freak forklift accident.”
