Texas pipeline explodes, residents evacuated

A pipeline exploded Thursday in Fort Bend County, Texas.

Sharing photos of the scene – with orange flames shooting high into the air – the Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Management in Fort Bend County wrote that the explosion occurred off of BJ Dusek Road between Orchard and Wallis.

"The area is isolated in a field and all of the area surrounding is restricted," it said, instructing residents to avoid the area.
