Injured, the only occupant of the place, an octogenarian who had lived in the village for a long time, was transported by road to the emergency room of the Percy military hospital in Clamart (Hauts-de-Seine), which specialized in severe burns. Several volunteer firefighters present at the time of the explosion evacuated victims from the burning debris. The man injured his foot stepping on a nail in the remains of the frame; he was taken to the emergency room of Fontainebleau hospital. The rest of the story is a series of small miracles for the neighborhood.
