An explosion at a steel plant in Western Pennsylvania has left several injured and at least one person dead, according to authorities.

The explosion took place at the US Steel Clairton Coke Works plant, located south of Pittsburgh. The facility is the largest coking plant in the country.

Allegheny County Emergency Services and Allegheny County Police said in a release that two people are currently unaccounted for, while several others have been injured. They also confirmed that one person died as a result of the explosion.

The Allegheny County Health Department said that out of an “abundance of caution,” residents living within a mile of the plant should remain inside, close windows and doors, and set their HVAC systems to recirculate.

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro wrote on X that the scene remained active. “Please join Lori and me in praying for the Clairton community,” he wrote.
