Firefighting crews extinguished the blaze that was started by an explosion caused by a gas bottle leak, and which quickly spread throughout the building, Antalya Police Department said in a written statement.

The windows of buildings and parked cars in the vicinity were smashed by the force of the explosion.

Muratpasa district governor, Fatih Kocabas, said forensic police and officials from the prosecutor's office would inspect video footage recorded by security cameras from surrounding retail businesses to rule out any questionable circumstances as to the cause of the blast.
