UPDATE: Death Toll Climbs to 6 People in Deadly NYC Building Explosion

Yesterday morning there was word out of Harlem that a building had collapsed after an intense explosion. Upon initial search and rescue efforts it was determined that 2 people had lost their lives and a few others were injured. Well, sadly, that number grew overnight as 6 people have now been confirmed dead in the deadly explosion caused by a gas leak nearby.

NYC First responders say that the search is still ongoing and it will take time to determine a final death toll count. Unfortunately, as last update, there were still people missing or unaccounted for.

We will keep you updated.
