Explosion and fire at a Dallas apartment building kills at least 3 people, including a child

A fire official says a huge fire has destroyed a two-story apartment building in Dallas and killed a child and at least two other people. Authorities would not immediately say Thursday how many missing people they were looking for hours after dozens of firefighters had brought the flames under control. Officials said the fire erupted after someone called 911 to report a gas leak. It was unclear how many residents lived in the two-story building in the Oak Cliff neighborhood of Dallas. Some residents’ friends and relatives worried as they tried unsuccessfully to reach each loved ones.
