Panic gripped a Brooklyn neighborhood when a manhole suddenly exploded on Central Avenue, sending a massive fireball shooting into the sky.
The terrifying incident, captured on video, shows pedestrians fleeing in fear as flames erupt just moments after a vehicle passes over the manhole.
The footage, initially shared on the Citizen App, quickly went viral on social media.
The New York City Fire Department (FDNY) confirmed that Con Edison crews rushed to the scene, and thankfully, no injuries were reported.
Shockingly, just two hours later, another manhole explosion rocked Lewis Avenue and Pulaski Street, setting off another blaze dangerously close to businesses and parked cars.
Earlier this year, a similar case in Texas saw “green flames” shooting from a manhole, adding to growing safety concerns.
Authorities continue to investigate the Brooklyn blasts as residents demand answers about the mysterious underground fires causing chaos on city streets.
