A massive fire and explosion at a Texas fertilizer plant outside of Waco has wounded dozens of people, damaged a local middle school and nursing home and prompted local officials to set up a triage center on a local football field, officials said.
The Waco Tribune is reporting that several firefighters and others were injured in the West Fertilizer plant in West, Texas about 8 p.m.
The Waco Tribune said that the fire spread to multiple buildings, including a nursing home, a middle school and an apartment complex that sent people to local hospitals and the football field for treatment.
The explosion was so large that people reported feeling the ground shaking in North and Central Texas.
