Three die in Enron UK power blastA third worker has died from injuries sustained from Wednesday's explosion at one of Europe's largest gas-fired power stations at Teesside, northern England, operator Enron said on Thursday. "Sadly a third member of staff died overnight making three fatalities," a spokesman for the US energy group said. "One other employee is in Middlesbrough hospital in a stable condition," he added. Two workers were killed on Wednesday after an explosion rocked the 1,875 megawatt plant at around 1340 GMT. A fire that followed the blast led to an evacuation and shut-down of the plant which is on an industrial complex in the Grangetown district of Middlesbrough. Britain's safety watchdog, the Health and Safety Executive has a team of inspectors at the plant, commissioned in 1992, investigating the cause of the explosion. Local police have said they believe the incident was an industrial accident. YOU MAY ALSO WANT TO READ:
