Police say “many” people have been taken to hospital after an explosion and fire in downtown Prince George, B.C., early Tuesday.

RCMP said there was an explosion near the Wood Innovation and Design Centre around 7 a.m. PT.

“Many have been transported to hospital,” Cpl. Jennifer Cooper told CBC News. “We are insisting today the public stay out of this area.”

Not that it really matters, but Prince George is where I got my 50(ish) year old macaw, Buddy, from a year ago next month!

Correct, the comment section to news about a tragic explosion where the injuries/ potential fatalities are unknown is not the place for that.

your right, seem this comment section is super full of information, its kinda hard to keep up. maybe try to sort by new and see how many more comments come up. ohhhhh, you mean no one has commented but me? Are you unable to scroll on from my comment to see others? so much vital information has been missed since i made my comment, how many do you think have been removed cause i said something? none? you mean you can see ALL the comments made here? holy shit the future is AMAZING
