CLEBURNE, Texas -- A large natural gas line in north Texas erupted Monday after utility workers accidentally hit the line, sending a massive fireball into the air and killing one worker, officials said.

Authorities found the missing worker’s body several hours after the explosion, once searchers could safely walk through the entire charred area.

Early reports had said at least 10 people were missing.
