The camera’s set up across the street from a house, which appears to have a construction crew working on it … and the explosion happens suddenly … with debris flying into the air and a massive fireball mushrooming into existence.
According to the New York Times … the explosion appeared to lead to the complete and total destruction of one house … as well as a massive fire which ripped through the neighborhood.
Ryan Nishimoto — the deputy chief of operations for the Alameda County Fire Department — told NYT, 75 emergency personnel responded to the scene to extinguish the fire. It’s unclear what exactly caused the blaze.
Six people were hospitalized due to the explosion … however, two are still missing. Emergency personnel were searching for the missing with the help of a dog.
