BOSTON — Firefighters in Massachusetts were investigating an explosion Wednesday that left a house engulfed in flames and at least two people injured, authorities said.
Emergency workers responded to the fire at the three-family home about 9:50 a.m., fire officials said.
Two injured residents, a 25-year-old mother with severe burns and a 2-year-old child with serious injuries, were transported to hospitals, officials said.
“The situation is now under control, but this was a very serious incident,” Fire Chief Steven Lavigne said. “The weather conditions present unique challenges, but we plan for these situations.”
The home was a total loss, and eight residents were displaced, fire officials said.
Two adjacent homes were also seriously burned, they said.
