A California woman and her husband were taken to St. Mary’s Hospital in Washington, D.C. for treatment after escaping a house fire caused by an explosion.
After hearing a loud boom coming from the residence, neighbors immediately went to aid the couple in escaping from their burning home. According to police and fire and rescue volunteers who were called to the scene, one side of the two-story home had been blown away in the explosion, and the fire was advancing through the rest of the house.
Fire marshals believe the home’s propane tank or multiple gas appliances could be to blame for the explosion. The husband was released from St. Mary’s with no injuries. The wife has been transferred to Washington Hospital Center for further burn treatment.
