An investigation is underway following an apparent explosion underground near Calgary’s BMO Centre Thursday morning.
It happened just before 8 a.m. Thursday at Macleod Trail SE and 14 Avenue SE.
Five workers were hurt after the industrial incident near a manhole.
EMS public information officer Stu Brideaux says four of them were taken to hospital in stable, non-life threatening condition.
At this time the scene does remain in care of police and OHS [Occupational Health and Safety] officials,” he added.
The fifth received treatment at the scene.
Macleod Trail was closed between 14 Avenue SE and 17 Avenue SE for several hours, but has since reopened.
