🚨🇺🇸BREAKING: MASSIVE OIL REFINERY ON FIRE - TEXAS CITY UNDER SHELTER-IN-PLACE ORDER

A fire broke out at the Marathon Oil refinery in Texas City just after noon, and officials didn’t waste time hitting the alarm.

Residents from Highway XXX to Bay Street were told to get inside, seal the house.

The city says air monitoring is underway and first responders are on the scene, but there’s still no word on what caused it or if anyone’s hurt.

Texas City OEM assures the public they’re “working closely with shareholders," which is corporate-speak for we’re still figuring it out, please don’t sue us.

If you live nearby, breathe through your shirt and maybe don’t grill tonight.
