Texas Explosion Lawyer

A series of small explosions under the streets of Boston sent smoke billowing onto the streets above and prompted an evacuation in the North End neighborhood.  As of now, no one has been injured, according to a report filed by WHDH TV in Boston.  The details of the incident appear below:“Early reports were that two manholes had erupted into flames and were emitting thick black smoke.

“While they were down here, the third manhole lit up down here near Cross Street,” Chief Edward Lorenz, Boston Fire Department, said.

According to NSTAR, only one cable malfunctioned, causing smoke to emit from the three manholes.

Hanover Street was down and evacuated as firefighters and NSTAR officials tried to repair the cable.

“There was smoke coming into my bedroom window because there was like a big black cloud of smoke coming up from the manhole,” Elise Palmier, witness, said.

Officials say that everything appears to be under control and that power should be restored late Wednesday night.

Many residents are still unable to return to their homes.”

Obviously, the force generated by an explosion can be deadly, but smoke entering homes can as well.  If you have been injured by an explosion, contact an explosion lawyer at Williams Kherkher today to schedule a free initial consultation.  You can do so either by clicking on the link provided or by calling us toll-free at (866) 950-9000
