Police and firefighters continue to investigate the cause of an explosion that injured five people and caused two homes to collapse in Philadelphia early Sunday morning.
An explosion injured five people and destroyed two homes in Philadelphia's Port Richmond neighborhood early Sunday morning.
The explosion occurred around 2:45 a.m. along the 3500 block of Miller Street. Philadelphia Police responded to the scene and discovered two homes were destroyed. Tara Dendall, who lives next door to where the explosion occurred, told NBC10 she had just went to bed after watching New Year's Eve celebrations, when the blast woke her up.
"I heard a boom," Dendall said."That window came in first, and it got me, then all this came in on top of me."The explosion blew out the windows of her home and several other houses."Just out of nowhere, it was a loud bang. And I just felt my car push over to the curb," he said."The fact that I'm able to sit there and see this, like I survived this, I feel grateful. I do.
