No casualties have been reported, the authorities said.

"We are devastated by this incident, but we are especially grateful that all members of our restaurant team are safe and that no one has been hurt," said a KFC spokesman in a statement.

Affected employees will have the choice to work in six KFC restaurants in the area "to minimize disruption to their work schedules and pay them", while Eden's location is rebuilt, said the spokesman.

The KFC Foundation Family Fund will also provide additional assistance to eligible employees, including transportation and other expenses.

Eden Mayor Neville Hall told NBC affiliate WXII in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, that he was several miles away and was still feeling the blast. He said residents and store employees are lucky.

"It's hard to see and think you can be lucky for anything," he said, pointing out that if the explosion had occurred a few hours later early, the restaurant would have been "packed with people".

Authorities are still trying to determine the cause of the blast. WCNC, affiliated with NBC, based in Charlotte, North Carolina, announced that energy and natural gas crews had arrived at the KFC shortly after the blast.
