NRK showed video of a blackened car lying on its side amid the debris.Most of the windows in the 20-floor highrise be blown out, and the bottom floor appeared to be gutted. Nearby offices were as well heavily damaged and evacuated, including those housing some of Norway's most important newspapers and news agency NTB.
