Residents said the explosion occurred during a party at
House Number 918 after an attempt was made to change gas plates after one of
them developed a fault.
Four of the victims were treated and discharged at Bindura
Provincial Hospital, while one was detained for further management.
Environmental Management Agency spokesperson for
Mashonaland Central province, Mr Maxwell Mupotsa confirmed the incident.
He said people should handle liquid petroleum gas with due
care as it is hazardous, as well as ensure gas tanks are serviced regularly by
trained personnel.
Provincial police officers yesterday said they had not
received such information and promised to get back with an update today. – ZBC
