"Six employees were injured after a blast at Marathon Petroleum's Garyville refinery sparked a fire and sent shockwaves felt in surrounding parishes, the company said Tuesday.
The update from Marathon officials was an increase in the number of injuries reported the day of the explosion, when officials had only confirmed one contract worker hurt.
Injuries from Monday morning's explosion were described as "minor," with three people treated onsite and three more sent to a hospital. No deaths from the incident have been reported.
Officials have yet to determine the cause of the blast."
