1:14Now PlayingFire crews were at the scene of an explosion and fire in San Francisco's Richmond District as flames consumed buildings in the area Wednesday afternoon.
An underground gas line exploded around 1 p.m. at Geary and Parker streets. Flames and smoke shot into the air for several hours as PG&E crews worked on a plan to turn off the gas. As of 3:30 p.m. the gas was turned. SF Fire Department said the fire was put out at 4:18 p.m. after more than two hours of "free-flowing" fire.
At this point, there are no injuries and everyone is accounted for, said San Francisco Fire Chief Joanne Hayes-White from the scene.
According to San Francisco Fire, a crew was digging a hole in the middle of the street for fiber optics work. There were eight workers on the crew. San Francisco Fire believes a gas line was ruptured during the work. All eight workers have been accounted for.
PG&E confirmed a third party crew - not associated with PG&E - was working in the area and ruptured the 12-inch gas line.
