On October 16, emergency services were alerted of an explosion in Newcastle.

The tragic incident claimed the life of seven-year-old Archie York. Later, another body, believed to be of a 30-year-old man, was found under the debris of the three houses destroyed on Violet Close in Benwell.

Six other people have been rushed to the hospital, and it is believed that there are no people missing. The rest of the residents have been staying with friends and relatives.

“It is with great sadness that I stand in front of you today following the tragic death of a young child,” Superintendent Darren Adams said from the scene. “As a result of the incident in the early hours of this morning, a seven-year-old boy has sadly passed away.

“Despite the efforts of the emergency services, he tragically died at the scene.

“This is a truly devastating outcome.”

“I have no doubt that the people of Elswick and Benwell, and our wider region, will want to join me in extending their thoughts and condolences to family and friends. The loss and pain they must be suffering is unimaginable.”

The family of the seven-year-old who lost his life are paying tributes, describing him as “a lovely lad.”

“Archie was my nephew and the most beautiful, funny, and caring little boy and his name deserves to be shouted from the rooftops! We all love you so much little man, you didn’t deserve this,” his aunt Abbie York said, adding that the entire family is “devastated and heartbroken beyond words.”

Our thoughts and prayers go to the families of the two people who lost their lives.
