Residents of Omaha have been asked to evacuate their homes after a massive fire erupted at a chemical company near the city’s downtown area, officials said.
Dense plumes of black smoke were visible for miles above the city as at least 50 firefighters continued to fight the 3-alarm blaze at the Nox Crete facility near 20th Street and Center Street, KETV reported.
Just before 9 p.m. responders urged those living between 13th and 20th Street from Leavenworth Street to Martha Street, after having previously been advised to shelter in place. Officials asked those who were not immediately able to evacuate to stay in their homes with windows and doors shut.
