An apparent gas explosion rocked a three-story Bronx apartment building Thursday afternoon, injuring six adults and three young children — including a critically injured 3-year-old.
The other two injured children were a baby and a 5-year-old, sources told The Post.
An adult civilian was also critically injured; one firefighter suffered minor injuries, officials said.
Eight of the injured were rushed to hospitals. The ninth, a civilian, declined medical attention, fire officials said.
The blast, which was believed to have been caused by gas, was reported just after 3:20 p.m. at 1520 Paulding Ave. in Morris Park, fire officials said.
