A man has been injured in a suspected gas explosion that badly damaged a terraced house in south London.The roof of the house has partially collapsed, London Fire Brigade said.
Rubble on the pavement and blown-out windows can be seen in photographs taken of the scene. A 25m cordon has been erected and people living in nearby houses were evacuated.Gail Glanville, who lives nearby, told BBC London: "Everyone came running out their houses and screaming." She added: "There were people trying to get anyone out of the house. One elderly gentleman stumbled out. I think he's OK, but of course in shock. He's with the paramedics."It was really, really scary, everyone is just really shaken."London Ambulance Service said it sent a number of resources to the scene, including an ambulance crew, a paramedic in a fast-response car and an incident response officer.
