It was on CNN. It's on local news here in the NY/NJ area. Possible gas leak.

Re: Building explosion in NY

I think I heard the reporter say it is a 7 alarm fire....building collapse...and adjacent building on fire.

There are injuries and people are being accounted for........................

Traffic is gridlocked in lower Manhattan and hundreds of first responders are trying to get through.

Thanks MJ. I'm a little nervous right now because someone very near and dear to me lives in that area.
