Although Scotland Yard confirmed that the London Fire Brigade established the cause of the blaze as "a gas explosion", a statement said the cause of the"suspicious explosion" was being investigated by Barnet CID.
DS Mark Tyrrell said it was "a miracle" more people weren't injured, adding "enquiries will continue at the scene to establish exactly what has happened and I would ask anyone with information to call police".
