May 11 (Bloomberg) -- An explosion today at a Glasgow, Scotland, plastics factory killed two people and left 60 trapped in the rubble of the collapsed building, the fire brigade said.

The explosion occurred at about noon at a Stockline Plastics plant on Grovepark Street near the center of the Scottish city, Strathclyde Police said. The area is a ``busy'' part of the city, Strathclyde Fire Brigade spokesman Alan Forbes said by telephone from the city.

``Two people have died and there are people trapped in the rubble,'' Forbes said, citing the ambulance service. ``About 60 people are trapped.'' The cause of the blast isn't known, he said.
