Yesterday morning, I was woken up by a tremendous noise at 7:30. At that moment, I didn’t realize it was an explosion. After washing my face and brushing my teeth, I went to the bus station. When I was waiting for the bus, I saw a natural gas wreaking car running fast on the road. I was planning to buy some vegetables in the supermarket. When I got on the bus to come back home, I found that the road was jammed. The bus driver told us that there was something wrong ahead of the road. I didn’t want to waste time on the bus so that I went off and walked back home.

On the way back to my home, I received a call from my friend. She told me that an explosion occurred in a building which was not far from my home. She asked if I was ok. I told her that was fine. When I got back home, I opened my laptop and found that an explosion occurred in the Jiatian International Building.

According to the government, the blast was caused by an leaked liquefied gas tank. The blast happened during the rushing hour and there were a lot of people who were waiting bus at the bus station in front of the building. When the blast occurred, the bus station was destroyed. The passers-by, students and people at the bus station were hurt badly.

Glass windows on the other side of the road were broken due to the blast. The municipal leaders, firemen and ambulances came there immediately. The injured were sent to hospital for further treatment. Unfortunately, nine victims were dead and 34 were still in the hospital.
