Writing Assignment #4

A 10-day-old infant was thankfully unharmed after a wall callopsed on its crib during an accidental explosion in an apartment on North Aisquith Street in Baltimore around 1 a.m. Thursday.
Housing authority manager of Housing Authority of Baltimore, Frederick Turner, responded to a one alarm fire Thursday morning. An explosion in apartment 10B was caused by a lit gas stove creating combustion of an insecticide aerosol spray that Arnetta Sands, the tenant, was using.
The wall inbetween apartments 10B and 10C then callopsed on the baby's crib in 10C and the infant was then rushed to John Hopkins to be sure it was unharmed. The child was treated and released and its mother Renee Henderson was also unharmed.
The kitchen and furnishings in 10B were left with fire damage from the explosion while Ms. Sands received 1st degree burns on her back and arms and was treated and released from Church Home and Hospital. Captain Thommen of the investigation team says it was accidental.
