'Major incident' declared after Leicester 'explosion' reports

Kind of strange it isn't front page news on BBC?
Several UK papers are headlining the story, maybe we can learn something about the newsfeed system?

Gas explosion.

Doesn't stop the usual suspects from still crying 'terrorism' though.

What a world we live in eh.

Five people have been confirmed dead in the explosion and a further five people are in hospital with one of those in a critical condition , fire crews are still searching for any other casualties.

Matt Cane, group manager at Leicestershire Fire and Rescue Service, said the bodies of the five people were found during the search of the building.

He added fire crews were still working to find survivors who may be trapped in "voids" inside the collapsed building. "When you look at the pictures of the building it looks incredibly unlikely that we would find anybody but we are absolutely committed to search and rescue at this stage," he said. "There are still pockets of fire in the basement area of the building."
