[At least two people have been injured,
one seriously, after a gas explosion
caused an “inferno” at a block of flats.

Bedfordshire Fire and Rescue Service
described the blaze on Redwood Grove, Bedford,
as a “major incident”,
while a local resident said they saw one
person leap from a second-floor window
to escape the burning building.

Bedfordshire Police confirmed two people
have been taken to hospital,
one with serious injuries,
as emergency services continue to respond
to the fire at the three-storey block of 20 flats,
which has caused the building’s roof to collapse.
Adam Fisher, a 37-year-old sales worker
whose office is nearby, said
he heard a “huge explosion” before witnessing
“an inferno” at the site and people screaming.]
