A battalion chief and eight firefighters from the Seattle Fire Department were hurt in the incident, which occurred after crews responded to a report of a natural gas leak, according to the P-I.
The outlet reported that none of the injuries were considered to be severe.
A photographer from a Fox affliate was in the area when the explosion occurred, the station wrote on its website.
“He described the aftermath of the explosion as a war zone and said glass was raining down,” Q13 Fox said in its story. “Fortunately, our photographer is OK.”
The fire department said there were 67 firefighters, medics and commanders at the scene, and NBC News reported that “at least 17 fire vehicles” were there following the explosion.
