A gas main explosion in a Northeast Philadelphia neighbourhood killed one person on Tuesday and injured five others, after a 50-foot fireball leaped into the sky and forced dozens of residents from their homes.
Fire dispatchers received a report of a gas and water main break in the Tacony neighbourhood at 7.19 pm.
The blast occurred a little over an hour later, as officials were inspecting the house.
