1 dead, several others injured after explosion at Bronx row house

CA, 19 Jan 2022
An explosion and fire gutted a row house in New York City’s Bronx borough on Tuesday, leaving one person dead and several others injured. Five police officers were among the injured, Mayor Eric Adams said.

“Our hearts go out to the family members of the loss of lives,” Adams said, lauding the work of officers, firefighters and residents who he said “saved lives.”

This was the second deadly fire in the Bronx in less than two weeks, following an apartment blaze that killed 17 people on Jan. 9.

Adams confirmed that someone had reported smelling gas in the area, but said an investigation into the cause of the explosion was ongoing.
