One person is dead and seven others are injured after an explosion in Ohio. The blast happened Tuesday afternoon at a building that contains a Chase bank and apartments in downtown Youngstown.

A 27-year-old employee at the bank died in the explosion. Seven people were hospitalized, including one person who was critically injured. Another woman was reported missing, but crews no longer believe she was at the scene when the blast happened.

Fire officials are looking into whether a gas leak occurred.
