A late-night gas explosion tore through a Northeast Albuquerque neighborhood on Sunday, destroying one home, severely damaging another, and sending one person to the hospital in serious condition, according to Albuquerque Fire Rescue (AFR).<\/span><\/p>\n

Crews were dispatched at 10:23 p.m. on November 23, 2025, to 1025 Walker NE, just west of Eubank and Lomas near Los Altos Park, after reports of an explosion that residents described feeling from miles away.\u00a0 People felt the blast as far away as Tramway and Lomas.<\/span><\/p>\n

AFR Lt. Jason Fejer confirmed that a resident was rescued from the destroyed home and transported to UNM Hospital, where they remain in serious condition. No additional injuries were reported.<\/span><\/p>\n

The house immediately south of the explosion site sustained severe structural damage, and its residents have been displaced until engineers can determine whether the building is safe to reenter. Debris from the blast was found scattered across the street.<\/span><\/p>\n
