ROCHESTER, N.Y. — A house is nothing but a pile of rubble and one man is in the hospital after an explosion at 250 Pullman Avenue Friday afternoon.
Fire officials say the house explosion spread fire to the two houses on each side of the original house, damaging the outside of both houses. No one was home in either of those two additional houses.
Rochester Fire Department Lt. Jackeline Sierra explains the explosion sheared the gas line of a nearby house, and crews worked to get the gas line cut off.
