Explosion at corn milling plant rocks Wisconsin town

CAMBRIA, Wis. - (AP) -- An explosion at a corn milling plant has rocked a community in central Wisconsin.

Columbia County Sheriff Dennis Richards tells local news outlets the blast was reported around 11 p.m. Wednesday at the Didion Milling Plant in Cambria.
