BIG SPRING, TX (AP) -- A sheriff's dispatcher says an explosion rocked an oil refinery in western Texas.
It's unclear whether there are injuries or whether a fire is burning at the refinery owned by Dallas-based Alon USA, which employs about 170 people and produces about 70,000 barrels a day.
Howard County sheriff's dispatcher, who declined to give her name, said: "All I know is that it blew up."

I hope everyone is ok. I also hope I never have to get directions from this reporter.

Big Spring is about halfway between Dallas and El Paso.
