Massive blast at chemical plant in Catalan city leaves 1 dead
At least one person has been killed following a huge explosion on Jan. 14 at a petrochemical plant in the industrial Catalan city of Tarragona.
The blast was so strong that it caused a building around three kilometers (about two miles) away to collapse. It was there that the death occurred.
