Apat katao ang nasaktan sa isang pagsabog at sunog sa isang gusali sa central Tokyo, kung saan makikita sa footage ang apoy at usok na galing sa ikalawang palapag.
Nagsimula ang apoy sa isang gusali sa restaurant area ng mataong Shimbashi district.
Sinabi ng isang tagapagsalita ng fire deparment na ayaw magpakilala, “The sound of an explosion was also heard. A total of 32 fire trucks are at the scene. Four people are injured, three of whom are conscious. No details were yet available on the fourth person.”
Iniimbestigahan na ng mga opisyal ng sanhi ng sunog.
Kuwento ng isang lalaking saksi, “The sound was deafening. It was as if something huge was dropped from the top of the building — it was an incredible bang.”
Dagdag pa niya, “Pieces of paper were scattered all over at the nearby intersection. From the way they were scattered, I immediately knew it was an explosion.’
