Philippine mall blast may have been an accident

[fred]

I was in Glorietta that lunchtime but left at 12.30pm, the thing is if it was an accident.... which I would prefer, but if it was a gas explosion why was there no fire ? Or are they suggesting that it was a non inflammable gas ??

What difference does it make?

The difference is that if there was no fire with a gas explosion then it would suggest that it could have been a bomb !!!!!!

Normally gas ignites and causes fire !!
