Authorities are urging people to evacuate after a large fire ignited at a natural gas plant in Oklahoma.
The Grant County Sheriff's Office advised anyone who lives within a 2-mile radius of the ONEOK plant in Medford to evacuate Saturday afternoon. It is unclear when people will be able to return.
"Please avoid any travel into or through Medford on U.S. Highway 81 at this time," the sheriff's office said earlier, citing an "active incident' at the plant.
