Seven injured in west Georgia plant explosion

Seven workers from a metals plant in west Georgia are recovering from injuries today, after an explosion rocked their workplace yesterday morning. Authorities now believe a burst of steam sparked the blast at G-and-S Metals in Manchester. The site is still under investigation. Of the seven injured, three were transferred to Grady Hospital in Atlanta--one of the three is listed in critical condition. The other four injured were taken to other hospitals with less serious injuries.
