Two five to six story buildings exploded and collapsed. Now on fire. Numerous victims taken to hospital. At least 11 injuries, one in critical condition. One survivor told local news media the “ground moved”!
News anchor with CBS New York City makes Freudian slip saying “the main concern is that there are no survivors….”. He meant no ‘victims’ still in the buildings.
One building was a church, the other had a piano shop and apartments. They were located on 116th and Park Avenue.
People living six blocks away report the explosion shook their apartments. Smoke from fire is blowing towards Central Park.
