BALTIMORE — A 70-year-old man, a 48-year-old woman and a 16-year-old girl are in critical condition, Baltimore City Fire Department spokesperson Chief Roman Clark said.
Clark said the woman and the girl are receiving treatment at a burn center. The man, who was outside the rowhome where the explosion happened at about 2 p.m., had tried to pull out the woman and the girl when another portion of the house collapsed on him. He is being treated at Shock Trauma, Clark said.
The explosion occurred Tuesday afternoon in the 1100 block of Bayard Street, across from Carroll Park. One house fully collapsed, and another might have sustained structural damage.
