Praying for the victims of the explosion in Harrisonburg this morning. I have friends that work in that and near that building and I really hope they weren't there when the explosion happened. https://t.co/qSd3VfUFO0

I’ve been told by Police this looks like the result of an explosion in the small shopping center that included a barber shop, vape store and Hometown Music, as well as an international grocery and Blue Sprocket. pic.twitter.com/HD6JxjdcIB
