Germany-Gas Explosion

An explosion at a German apartment building has left several people dead and many others injured or missing. The French Press Agency reports police say the blast occurred at a building housing elderly in the northern German city of Bremen. A spokesperson says hopes of finding anyone alive in the rubble of the building are dim. The explosion nearly leveled the four-story structure. Rescue workers were able to find a woman and a man who used his mobile phone to alert them. The source of the explosion is unknown.
