A daycare centre in Washington was evacuated on January 18, minutes before a gas leak caused an explosion at a store next-door.
Emergency crews received reports of an outside gas leak on Thursday morning and began evacuating buildings on the street.
“About 20 minutes after that first 911 call there was an explosion in the two-storey building. That explosion knocked out the windows on the second floor and created a flash fire. A secondary explosion occurred in a convenience store and it knocked down the convenience store,” Fire and EMS Chief John A Donnelly said.
Video shared by DC Fire and EMS shows firefighters standing outside a convenience store when a huge explosion destroys the shop, sending debris flying across the street.
One person was taken to hospital with minor injuries.
The 16 children who were safely evacuated from the daycare centre were reunited with their parents a short time later.
Firefighters believe the leak happened after a vehicle struck a gas meter attached to a building.
“Lives were saved by the swift action of the first arriving firefighters at this 2nd Alarm gas explosion and fire,” they said.

,1,NEW witnesses are set to be quizzed over the disappearance of Jay Slater after the alleged theft of a Rolex hours before the teen vanished.
Two mystery Brits who partied with Jay Slater on the night of his disappearance are "not relevant", investigators have also said today.
The latest twist comes just days after a private investigator called the men "key witnesses" in the case.
A "massive" new search kicked off today with the help of specialist volunteers amid a "make or break" final push to find the 19-year-old Brit.
It comes amid a key 48 hours in the search for Jay - which has now been labelled as "make or break".
The source added: "There’s a feeling that this weekend is going to be absolutely key. A huge amount of resources and effort is being piled into the next 48 hours.
“It’s not all or nothing, but investigators dearly hope this weekend will provide the breakthrough they are hoping for.”
