An explosion connected with Watson Grinding & Manufacturing Co. killed two people early in the morning on Friday, January 24, 2020. A massive explosion was reported at about 4:20 a.m. at Watson Valve Services near the intersection of Gessner and Clay Roads.
The city’s fire department says at least one person has been hospitalized due to the incident. Local hospitals have reported at least 18 people checked in or visited an emergency room for injuries caused by the Houston building explosion.
