A large explosion occurred Wednesday afternoon at the Androscoggin Mill in Jay, causing debris from the mill to rain down on nearby roads.
No casualties or injuries have been reported, according to Maine Department of Public Safety spokesperson Stephen McCausland.
Fire officials are currently working on a strategy to address the aftermath of the explosion. McCausland said a chemical element was involved either during the explosion, or in its aftermath, though he did not know where inside the mill the explosion occurred.
