I'm watching it now on CNN, a 7 alarm fire.
 
Anyone know which building this is? Is it residential? Not much info.

OMG! Pomme Frites!
My son lived in the building behind it last year!
 
I am watching the live coverage on WABC

They interviewed a lady who came to the aid of a badly injured woman who was in the ground floor restaurant. According to this lady - the injured woman said that a man came into the restaurant and asked to use the washroom. The man ran out of the washroom and shortly afterwards there was a huge explosion. If accurate this raises the question as to whether this was a lone-wolf jihadist attack.

City officials say appears 2B a gas leak that caused huge explosion in the #EastVillage #nyc. Appears to have started in a sushi restaurant.

seems early to say for sure it was a gas leak, no? Regardless, I truly hope no one has lost their life in this explosion. Looks absolutely horrifying. Sad for all your NYers...
