Hopefully it was set to be demolished and not some act of terrorism. Or that damn exploding watermelon from DKC: TF. I'll check the news.

The explosion was so loud it broke windows a couple blocks away.

It was a Church, and there is a section where people can live on top of it. The Locals said since yesterday they were smelling gas coming from the building.

That is all the info I'm getting from the news, and a lot of people injured. No word of any deaths.

Good that at least you're ok.

If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Probably a gas explosion, then. Was it an older building?

Glad you're okay! Must be one hell of a way to start your morning. Was the noise of the explosion very clearly heard from your area?
