displaced, according to reports. No
injuries were reported.
The cause of the fire remained under
investigation, but investigators believe
it began in a void space between the
third-floor ceiling and roof deck. Solar
panels were not believed to be the
cause of the fire.
The building contained 57 living
units and occupied a ground floor area
of approximately 4.3 million square
feet (401,873 square meters). It was
not equipped with automatic sprinkler
protection.
Financial estimates of fire damage
were not available, but reports indicated
that the restoration of the
building from fire, smoke, and water
damage was likely to take many months.
NEW YORK
Gas leak suspected in explosion and
fire that kills one
An early morning explosion and fire
claimed the life of one occupant of a
single-family residence, according to
police and fire reports.
The fire department was dispatched
to the scene shortly before 7:30 a.m.
following multiple calls to 911. Arriving
crews found explosion debris at the end
of a street, burning debris in the roadway,
and fire in the remains of a house.
Crews reported signs of a gas leak and
damage to five nearby houses from
an explosion. Power lines were also
reported to be down.
As reported in a news account, the
home was completely destroyed and
fire was burning from the foundation
of the residence as crews arrived. Firefighters
deployed multiple hose lines
and water monitors and assisted with
the evacuation of residents in the area.
Medical examiners determined that a
female occupant who died in the explosion
suffered blunt impact injuries. No
other injuries were reported.
Investigators were unable to completely
reconstruct the scene due to
the extent of damage but believed that
the explosion was a natural gas-related
event that initiated in the south end of
the basement, which contained multiple
possible ignition sources. They concluded
that the initiating event caused
an explosion that then produced the fire.
Information was not available on
dollar losses.
ARKANSAS
One killed, one injured in fire caused
by thermal runaway of battery
An elderly woman died and a male
occupant was injured in an early
morning house fire caused by thermal
runaway of a charging battery.
Firefighters responded after a resident
heard an alarm sounding in the
attic and called 911 shortly before 2
a.m. Investigators estimated that the
fire had ignited a half hour to an hour
before it was detected.
According to news reports, arriving
firefighters were met by two family
