Essex County, Massachusetts — First responders were overwhelmed as apparent gas explosions were ripping through homes in three Massachusetts towns Thursday. At least 20 explosions have been reported.
Massive home explosions were reported in Lawrence, Andover and North Andover. Officials in North Andover have officially ordered an evacuation for the entire town.
Officials believe the cause was an over pressurization of a gas line which caused ruptures in multiple homes leading to leaks, explosions, and fires.
Lawrence police Chief Roy Vasque said, “It’s bad. I’ve never seen anything like it.”
The government there has activated the Emergency Operations Center in response.
