Gas blast destroys house

Reporter: by RICHARD HOOTON

THIS was the scene minutes after a suspected gas explosion ripped through a semi-detached house in Byland Avenue, Roundthorn this afternoon,

One man was miraculously pulled from the rubble of his home alive by a neighbour after the blast at around 1pm.

Oh my god! This houses is (was) behind mine! I thought someone was trying to kick my front door in! I have never seen anything like it in my whole life. My 4 year old daughter is absoultley terrifed. I hope no one was seriously hurt although it would be a miracle!!

It was my house that was attached to it and can I just say i was offered a hostel with two children, which I refused because it is Xmas and I don't want my children in a hostel. The people who live next door have been given a fully furnishd house, which they move into on Tuesday and have been given money. I have had nothing which I think is wrong. At the end of the day my house as gone as well, not just theirs. Watching my own home burning in front of my eyes was really devastating.

yes it was my house and i was in it Gas blast destroys house we did not get a house for 4 weeks as you say it was not
fully furnishd as you say and we did not get given money as you say so get a life as we have had to
