Authorities identified two more people who died in a blast at an Illinois silicones plant. One person remains unaccounted for, officials said.
Lenzi said Monday that there is no evidence of foul play and that the explosion is being considered an accident. AB Specialty Silicones is a manufacturing and distribution company specializing in silicone-based ingredients.
Lenzi said Tuesday that the cause may not be known for at least a week, or possibly months. He said officials are conducting a slow and methodical search for the person who is unaccounted for. "We are so very grateful for the outpouring of prayers and support for Byron and our family," his family said."We ask that you keep the victims, their families, and the first responders in your prayers."
