BELTSVILLE, Md. — A pair of explosions and a fire damaged a warehouse in Beltsville, Maryland, Friday morning, the Prince George's County Fire Department said.

The building was evacuated, and a search of the building found no one else inside, Prince George's County Fire and EMS said in a tweet Friday.
While on the scene there was a second explosion. Firefighters say that second explosion appears to have come from a recycling unit inside the building. No injuries have been reported.
