Officials say the investigation is now ongoing after 12 people were injured in an apparent gas explosion that rocked an east Ottawa suburb on Monday morning. The injured included two children and two people who were pulled out of the rubble.

The two kids were among six taken to the hospital immediately after the explosion at an Orleans housing development, Ottawa Paramedic Services said. Two men suffered serious injuries, but all of those in the hospital were in stable condition, according to paramedics. Other injured people were released at the scene.

Nicholas DeFazio, a public information officer with Ottawa Fire Services, said Monday afternoon that the cause of the explosion was still under investigation despite firefighters initially saying that a gas leak was the culprit.
