The videos below are raw raw footage of the explosion at a fertilizer plant in West Texas, just north of Waco where 5 to 15 people are confirmed dead, hundreds injured and officials fully expect the death toll to increase to between 60 and 70 people, including firefighters and police that responded to the fire before the explosion.
Reports coming out say this leveled a significant portion of the town of West, Texas.
Dallas News:

A massive explosion at a fertilizer plant rocked the town of West, north of Waco, causing multiple casualties and leaving people trapped and buildings on fire.
Emergency personnel were bracing for the possibility of dozens of dead in the blast, which was reported at 7:53 p.m. and could be heard 45 miles away in Waxahachie.
Although authorities confirmed that at least five to 15 people had died, shortly before 5 a.m. they were still saying they did not have an official total. They have said they expect to find more bodies as they continue to search the area.
West's EMS director, Dr. George Smith, confirmed after 4 a.m. that two emergency personnel had been killed in the explosion, which occurred at West Fertilizer Co., just off Interstate 35, about 80 miles south of Dallas.
Smith said he could not yet confirm whether three to five firefighters and one police officer who have been reported as missing had died.
Officials said more than 160 people had been treated for injuries at various hospitals, but that number could continue to climb as emergency personnel search for survivors at 5 a.m.
A blaze had broken out earlier at the plant, and the explosion occurred while firefighters were trying to put it out.
