At least seven people were injured in a fire incident at a fuel station in Kariobangi, Nairobi.
The fire broke out from the station and spread out to the nearby structures.
Property of unknown value was destroyed in the incident before the fire was contained.
The fire was shortly put off using fire extinguishers on a fuel lorry that was at the newly opened station.
The victims were rushed to Margaret Uhuru Kenyatta Hospital where they were treated and discharged with minor burns, police said.
Police said they are investigating the cause of the fire.
There was also panic after a fire broke out in an area near the Embakasi gas plant explosion on Tuesday night.
However, Nairobi police boss Adamson Bungei said no one was injured in the fire that occurred at a store containing blankets.
He said fire engines rushed to the scene and managed to contain the inferno in time.
“The fire was contained before spreading to other places but it caused huge losses,” he said.
A blast at a gas refilling station in the area caused a huge fire that killed six people and injured more than 300 people on February 1.
The incident is still under probe and so far four people including the owner of the yard have been arrested over the incident.
