The Hurst Police Department is continuing the investigation into the residential house explosion that occurred at 433 Myrtle Drive at approximately 1:03 pm on Saturday, April 7th, 2018. Hurst Police and Fire personnel were initially dispatched to the residence on the homeowner’s report that a vehicle had just crashed into their house, and one of the residents was trapped in a bedroom.
Several officers from the Hurst Police Department arrived on scene at the same time, and as they were walking up to the residence to assist, the house suddenly exploded in a massive fireball which lifted the roof from the structure and blew out most of the back wall. At the time of the explosion, a husband and wife were still inside the house with their adult son. Officers ran to the back of the house and found the wife severely injured and buried in rubble. They pulled her outside to safety while getting her husband and son outside away from the house.
Meth lab? Gas leak? Mexican food?
Did someone get on the wrong side of Liam Neeson? That happens in a lot of his movies, for some reason.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, it's amazing that no one was killed outright in that massive explosion!
The SUV you see had crashed into the house. It is believed it severed a natural gas line which led to the explosion.
ReplyDeleteMaybe the vehicle busted a natural gas pipe.
