SUBANG JAYA, Sept 28 — Four people were hurt in an early morning explosion at the Empire Gallery shopping mall here, which was heard from as far away as Bangsar.

Eyewitnesses described a scene of chaos, adding police, ambulances and the fire brigade are still on the scene. Police tracker dogs are also there as investigations begin.

Selangor Mentri Besar Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim tweeted this morning and prayed for the safety of nearby residents.

Subang Jaya assemblyman Hannah Yeoh is also there, he added.

The shopping mall opened last year.

Yeoh told The Malaysian Insider she scrambled to get there after receiving a tweet about 3-something this morning.

"The four injured have been taken to the hospital. One broke his leg, apparently," she said.

"The damage [to the building] is extensive. All of the lower floor all the way up to the second floor," she added.

The cause of the explosion is still unknown, she said.

The police have sealed off the area surrounding the mall, causing a severe traffic jam as workers are caught up in the morning office rush hour.
