Philadelphia residents have been reacting to Friday night's crash, with one man saying the area of the site is "unrecognizable".

"I come here almost every day, I'm a field rep salesman. And fortunately yesterday I didn't go into the field. But coming back today, this place is unrecognizable," Zach Coates tells Reuters.

"Everything that was here, the community, everything I can tell, everybody is impacted by it," he adds.

One woman, Tanisha, becomes emotional as she explains that she is trying to get in touch with her cousin, who lives on a block which is currently cordoned off.

"Oh, man. I haven't heard from her yet. So I'm trying to make sure she is okay. My heart is racing. There is a lot going on, a lot of emotions," she says.
