Explosion in the nighborhood

[jmccalip]

You all thought I was crazy for coming into the TPR chat first thing after I thought I heard a bomb go off...

 

 

Lastnight I was just chilling out in the living room, when I heard a MASSIVE explosion. Shook the whole house and rattled the picture frames. It was 12:30AM, so we didn't go out driving, wish we did though.

 

A few streets down, a house was leveled to the ground. The whole thing blew up, nothing left but the fireplace. Windows were blown out across the street, 2x4's in trees. The blast was heard 5 miles away.

The link's not working. What was the cause? A gas leak? Was anybody hurt?

What happened exactly ? Any details ?

I will get some pics up later. But I couldn't get too close, the have the roads blocked off, so you have to cut through the golf course.

 

They still havn't found out what caused it. And it turns out the lady was inside the house and she got blown into the backyard. She has no injuries except for some minor burns and some lost hair...

The fact that there actually WAS a giant explosion just makes it worse that you didn't think to go outside to see what happened...

I did, I checked our whole street out with my 30million CP spotlight. TUrns out it was two more streets over.

^ Ah, sorry, i read that as "a few houses down" instead of "a few streets down"
