Firefighters carried the most seriously injured victim of a gas explosion from the wreckage of his flat, according to eye-witnesses.

The man was one of two people taken to hospital after the blast destroyed a ground floor flat at a three-storey council block in Earlsfeld, south west London.

An eye witness told how firefighters rescued him from the rubble.

Local pub worker George Lepley, 24, said: “At 7.30am I jumped out of bed faster than I ever had in my life.

“There was a loud bang which felt like a bus had hit our flat.
