UPDATE, 10:53 am, CDT: Two dead and at least 17 injured in Manhattan apartment building explosion after residents reported smelling gas
CBS NY "Two buildings have collapsed after an explosion Wednesday morning in East Harlem.
It happened around 9 a.m. on Park Avenue on 116th Street, the FDNY said. One of the buildings that collapsed had a piano repair shop with apartments above. The second building housed a church.
"It’s unclear if anyone was inside the buildings at the time of the explosion. Officials believe the buildings were both 5 stories tall.
Video from the scene shows heavy smoke rising from the area as hundreds of firefighters battle the blaze, which has been upgraded to five-alarms. Debris and rubble could be seen scattered all over the area."
Terrorists? Maybe, but why would they attack someplace other that a conspicuous major area?
