根據GlobalNews報道，馬薩諸塞州警察正在對Lawrence, Andover和North Andover等地至少39起瓦斯爆炸事件作出回應。到目前為止，還沒有人員受傷報告。
州警察局在一條推文上說，警察在現場協助安全和交通管制。Lawrence消防局稱，當地居民打電話說他們的燃氣管道出現問題，消防局對整個城市發生的多起事件作出回應。
Andover和North Andover居民被疏散。
警方隨後在推特上表示，目前正在進行大規模的社區疏散。現在推測事故原因還為時過早。推文還說，正在進行聯合調查。
Updated plotting of confirmed fires and explosions by MSP Watch Center. 39 locations confirmed thus far. Number will grow. New responses ongoing.

Numerous evacuations of neighborhoods where there are gas odors are underway. Far too early to speculate on cause. Joint investigation will be conducted when situation is stabilized.
