Risk of explosion remains at Winston-Salem fertilizer plant more than two days after a fire broke out. 'We're asking all the citizens to stay out of the area and if they're in the area to evacuate,' officials said.
"We still do have an active fire," Winston-Salem Battalion Chief Patrick Grubbs told reporters."Our message has stayed the same the whole time — we're asking all the citizens to stay out of the area and if they're in the area to evacuate. There is still a risk of explosion at this time."
Firefighters still can't get within 300 feet of the volatile blaze, Grubbs said, and he's not sure when they might be able to get closer."It could be another day could be another week of waiting we don’t know," he said.
