David Muir returns delivered a heartbreaking report about an explosion in Missouri 

ABC news anchor Davi Muir has returned to the network, keeping the country informed about the latest developments and controversies unfolding worldwide.

Following several weeks away, Muir is back behind his ABC World News Tonight anchor desk, and while his devoted audience of admiring viewers were thrilled to see his return, they weren’t particularly happy to learn about one heartbreaking news report.

Muir, 51, started by recognizing his comeback, saying, “Good evening, it is great to be back with you at home,” before diving into a devastating news report concerning an explosion in Missouri . It comes after he interrupted regular programming last month to speak about a shocking breaking news story.

He went on, “We do begin tonight here with the scene of destruction after a massive explosion, multiple homes up in flames in a neighborhood just north of St Louis, Missouri. The evidence is coming in late today. At this hour, residents are being told to stay away. Authorities on the scene say the explosion erupted in one home, setting others nearby on fire. The flames continuing to spread, multiple homes going up in flames, damaging more than 20 homes in all.”

The breaking news from Missouri arrived just hours after a psychologist cautioned that Donald Trump is showing “dead ringer” symptoms of a horror disease, reports the Mirror US.

At least three people were injured, and more than 20 properties were damaged in the explosion

Regarding the explosion, Muir added, “Tonight, a rescue Task Force continues searching for any possible victims in the rubble. So far, they say three people have been injured. The bomb and arson unit have been called to the scene, leading the investigation.

“Crews from the gas company are also on scene. All are now investigating what could have caused this.

“ABC News’ Mola Lenghi brings us the images tonight of what we know so far,” he concluded as he handed off to Mola, who was reporting from the disaster scenes in Missouri.”

A snippet of the segment was posted on ABC World News Tonight’s official Instagram account, with the caption, “Multiple homes were leveled after a powerful explosion in a neighborhood north of St. Louis, Missouri. At least three people were injured, and more than 20 properties were damaged.”

Viewers quickly rushed to the comment section to express sorrow over the tragedy.

One user wrote, “MY GOD,” followed by six praying hand emojis, while another shared, “A block away from my house. I thought it was an earthquake. Felt all the way in granite City.”
