4 people were rushed to a hospital Friday after an oil rig blew up in the Gulf of Mexico some 17 miles southeast of Grand Isle, La. , the U.S. Coast Guard told NBC News. It was not known if the fire had actually triggered a spill. The Coast Guard activated a command center to explore. The rig is not drilling at a deep water site like the Macondo well that blew out in 2010. That disaster led to an explosion that killed 11 workers and triggered the worst offshore oil spill in U.S. history.
