Explosion at Iowa Chemical Factory
51 minutes ago
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — An explosion and fire Monday at a chemical plant northeast of Des Moines sent plumes of thick smoke into the sky and forced officials to close two interstate freeways.
There was no immediate word on whether anyone was injured.
Flames and clouds of black smoke soared above the Barton Solvents plant, and exploding barrels could be seen jetting into the sky.
Police closed Interstates 80 and 235 near the fire.
"There is thick smoke and they're concerned drivers can't see," said Dena Grey-Fisher, a spokeswoman for the Iowa Department of Transportation. "There's also toxic fumes associated with chemicals and they're going to do some testing of the area."
