San Bruno, California (9/12/2010) - Residents of a San Francisco suburb named San Bruno were allowed to go back to their homes on Sunday.
They were really upset by all the damage they saw.
"I saw all this from the news, but being here the first time coming up here and looking at all this -- no words. I can't really explain," San Bruno resident Walter McCaffrey.

The fire began when a gas line broke in San Bruno, near San Francisco International Airport. The explosion blew in the doors of a grocery a quarter-mile (400 meters) away, and the explosion and resulting fire killed at least four people, injured 52 others and completely destroyed 37 homes. Other homes were also damaged in the fire.
Another four people are still missing as of Sunday. Everyone is hoping that they are ok.
