Crews saw smoke as they arrived; on the scene, they found some fire, and the home leveled.
“It essentially blew up and collapsed on down to the slab portion,” said Wichita Fire Battalion Chief Kelly Ross. “There is a couple of real close homes right next to the one that exploded. They have a little bit of damage to them.”
The fire department has not located any victims in the fire; they believe the house was vacant at the time.
