The police chief confirmed that one building was destroyed in the blast while a neighboring building suffered damage. They are investigating the cause. Officials said that Palmer building No. 2 was destroyed while Palmer building No.1 suffered damage.
According to Philip Wert, the vice president of the West Reading council, the building had been constructed in the late nineteen fifties or early nineteen sixties. He said that officials had to access the council’s archives “to pull the blueprints” on Friday night so that they could “get a better layout of the building and the mechanicals and the utilities, where things are”, according to a report in AP.
According to 6abc, the names of those who were killed in the explosion have not been revealed. It also reported that Tower Health said that Reading Hospital received a total of 10 patients, on Saturday.
R. M. Palmer is expected to make a statement, according to officials.
