Fire from an explosion at a plant housing toxic chemicals in east Texas was contained and shelter-in-place orders were lifted Wednesday afternoon after a massive plume of smoke spread over the area, officials said.
The explosion happened at about 8:17 a.m. at the Sound Chemical Solutions plant in Shepherd, Texas, a rural city of just over 2,000 people in San Jacinto County. The specific cause of the explosion was not immediately known.
