A worker was injured in an explosion and fire at a fuel transfer facility in Duluth’s Lincoln Park neighborhood, Northern News Now reports.

The worker and another were removing the remaining fuel from a mostly empty, 17,000-gallon tank when it exploded.

An employee from a nearby bike shop said of the explosion: “We just felt the building shake like we’ve never felt the building shake before. It felt like, how I’ve described it to the people I’ve talked to, is thunder times 100.”

The extent of the worker’s injuries has not yet been reported.
