<p>Investigators have not yet released any information on the cause of the explosion.</p>
<p>Steve Imbarlina, assistant chief of Allegheny County Emergency Services, <a href="https://www.wtae.com/article/plum-house-explosion-fire-officials-sunday/44802319">said</a> it could take &#8220;months, if not years&#8221; to determine what caused the explosion.</p>
<p>&#8220;Lori and I are praying for family, friends, and neighbors who lost someone in Plum yesterday, and we&#8217;re grateful for the first responders who ran towards danger to save lives,&#8221; said Pennsylvania Democratic Governor Josh Shapiro. &#8220;The five Pennsylvanians who passed and their families are in our thoughts today. May their memories be a blessing.&#8221;</p>
<p>Imbarlina said several people were hospitalized after the explosion, and dozens of firefighters received treatment for minor injuries.</p>

<p>“That could have been anything from a strain sprain to heat-related issues,” he said. “They were treated on scene and returned back to duty and re-entered the effort.”</p>
<p>Local officials said electricity and gas services had been temporarily shut off in the neighborhood.</p>
<p>People living in the community expressed shock over the incident, saying they could not believe it happened in their neighborhood.</p>
<p>&#8220;I still can&#8217;t believe it,&#8221; said Jason Decheck. &#8220;You see this stuff, and when it&#8217;s this close, you don&#8217;t even know what to think. These are your neighbors &#8230; you may not know them all, but this is a really tight community.&#8221;</p>
