Florida chemical-plant explosion:

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Explosions and fires at a chemical plant  
Wednesday killed four people, injured at least 14 and sent debris  
flying several stories into the air, fire officials and witnesses said.

It was not clear what caused the blasts at the T2 Labs plant, which  
makes solvents and fuel additives, said Jacksonville Fire and Rescue  
spokesman Tom Francis, who called the scene a "hellish inferno."

The blast was so powerful that it knocked out two of the three  
generating units at a JEA electric-utility plant across the street, a  
company spokeswoman said.
