A man using a vacuum cleaner to suck gasoline out of a vehicle was burned and his house damaged when the fuel exploded, the Albuquerque Fire Department said.

The department responded Tuesday morning to 1500 Seven Falls Place Northwest, where they found a 33-year-old man had been blown into the street by the explosion, Capt. Mike Paiz said.

He was treated at University of New Mexico Hospital for burns, Paiz said.

The house was condemned by the city after a team found the roof was lifted off and some walls displaced several inches by the blast, Paiz said. Source
