At least 21 people were injured as a result of an explosion at a hotel in Texas, the United States, a media report said on Tuesday.
The blast took place at the Sandman Signature Fort Worth Downtown Hotel, according to a spokesperson for MedStar, which provides emergency medical services and operates ambulances in the area, CNN reported.
Four of the injured were in serious condition and others had sustained minor injuries, according to the spokesperson.
Fire officials believe the blast was caused by “some type of gas explosion” but are still working to verify the cause, said Craig Trojacek, a spokesperson for the Fort Worth Fire Department.
He said investigators were working to determine what caused the incident at the hotel – which is near both city hall and the city’s convention center.
