(CNN) -- An explosion Wednesday at a chemical plant shook windows, rattled doors and sent a thick plume of smoke over a section of Jacksonville.
Police have cordoned off the entire area near Faye Road, closed off highway exits to the site and set about evacuating office workers from the industrial section of the city where the explosion occurred, said WTLV-TV reporter Grayson Kamm. At least 15 fire trucks were at the scene.
A spokesman for JEA, a Jacksonville power company, said it has a power generating plant across the street and was evacuating all nonessential employees from the building.
Carlton Higginbotham, 63, was at home on Townsend Boulevard in Jacksonville working when a loud boom shook his entire house, he said.
"It was a gunshot-type explosion; it wasn't a rumble," he said.
The insurance salesman and his neighbor ran outside and noticed a thick plume of smoke billowing up on the other side of the St. John's River that separates his neighborhood from the site of the blast.
"The cloud that came out of it was white, some would say mushroom-shaped," Higginbotham said. "It was followed by dark, dark smoke."

Interesting, they still don't have much of updates, they say now 4 people sent to the hospital as of yet, and the hazmat crew haven't determined if the chemicals that everybody can smoke are toxic or not....
*Update: atleast 2 dead assumed by CNN...
