A very powerful explosion similar to that which rocked Boston, has now injured up to 40 people in Prague..
CNN UPDATE: An explosion ripped through a film and TV school building in the Czech capital of Prague while classes were in session Monday morning, injuring dozens of people and prompting evacuations of nearby buildings, city fire officials said.
An explosion damaged an office building in the center of the Czech capital, Prague, Monday, injuring up to 40 people. Authorities believe some people are buried in the rubble. It is not certain what caused the blast in Divadelni Street. The street was covered with rubble and was sealed off by police who also evacuated people from nearby buildings and closed a wide area around the explosion site. “There was glass everywhere and people shouting and crying,” Vaclav Rokyta, a Czech student, told the AP near the scene. “I was in the bathroom, no windows, the door was closed, honestly, if I had been in my bed I would have been covered in glass,” said Z.B. Haislip, a student from the U.S. state of North Carolina who was in a nearby building. AP.
