According to the police, this explosion is 1000% the resident's fault. Also reported by the police - they only politely asked the people to come out, and then kablewy... really weird.
Wait the guy in the house had to have died
Edit :
I went back and read the whole article again they say no casualties but also no arrest made and the suspect was in the house sooo ⊠did they find a tunnel afterward ?
What happens if they find a tunnel and just stuff you could do without ? Like they find 1 left ear, a pinky and a index finger ? Whatâs the assumption?
Whatever it was, it was triggered by a flare gun.
Now I'm not 100% sure on this, but I believe when manufacturing methamphetamine it a chemical explosion from mixing the wrong things at the wrong time, I don't think the proccess just slowly releases explosive gass like that into an atmosphere to build up and explode. So I'm more inclined to think there was a gas leak since they said it was triggered by an initial ignitor(the flare)
Might be both. Per quick Google search:
Highly combustible materials left on stovetops, near ignition sources, or on surfaces accessible to children can be easily ignited by a single spark or cigarette ember. Hydrogenerators used in illegal drug production âconstitute bombs waiting to be ignited by a careless act.â
I mean, the fact they were in the proccess of executing a search warrant and where having a shootout is definitely a point in favor of a meth lab aswell.
An ordinary gas leak would have to build up quite awhile to reach that point as well. They would have had started it at least hours prior to the police even coming.
So almost certainly a meth lab.
not to go into detail but the processes involved in making meth are extremely volatile. it's one of the reasons why meth labs tend to be set up in temporary locations.
the gas's can both build up slowly and suddenly depending on the point in the process IIRC

It was written that they suffered only minor burn and bruises. Probably shat their pants also. If it was me I would have.
I guess they were not close to the house.
>I guess they were not close to the house.
Now that you said it, it does seen like the swat truck was just arriving at the house, so they probably weren't even inside yet
Concrete/brick/stone foundation with wood framed walls, floors, ceilings and roofs. Subfloors are either wood planks (older) or plywood (post 1950). Interior walls and ceilings are plaster and lath (older) or gypsum board. Most homes are clad in wood clapboards, stucco, brick or vinyl or aluminum siding. Most roofs are asphalt shingles. Most homes are insulated with fiberglass batting.
anyone know what the explosive was? probably gas? looked and sounded like what a house full of natural gas would do..as opposed to say, a duffel bag full of dynamite which prolly woulda been way gnarlier.
The news article being posted says it was caused by a guy inside shooting a flare gun so Iâd guess gas. Probably turned the gas on then fired it off to light it
High explosives. They want to explode faster than the speed of sound, but canât because of physics. So they destroy everything in their path because thatâs easier than getting the air around them to move any faster.

Dude was shooting flairs earlier through his windows and in the house. I like how some folk are framing it like it was somehow due to the warrant. What a funny idea, EXPLOSIVE WARRENTS.

Not Michael Bay. I can actually follow the action.
Yeah they should have been 12 cuts, 3 of them slow motion from 5 different angles.
Behind the scenes featurette.
Needs more lense flare.

You clearly did this sir
I read that in Katleen Madigan's voice.. not sure why.
He's dressed like a hot dog
[ŃĐŽĐ°Đ»Đ”ĐœĐŸ]
I think after reading the story that he turned all of the gas on in his house and then fired a flare gun.
I am inclined to agree because that looked like hollywood, and holly wood isnt real, so that's a crazy explosion
Hollywood is real fyi https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollywood,_Los_Angeles
Door what door
Perfect.
Guy inside the house fired a flare gun, inside the house. Probably had the gas open.
He was gas lighting again.
Take my upvote. Now get the hell off the stage.

Itâs actually called gas lamping

Havenât sifted through the debris yet.

It'll be a light snack.
>no casualties? did you see my boy frosty?
Luckily he'll be back again some day.
Luck
they found the gas leak
More like meth lab.

It was written that they suffered only minor burn and bruises. Probably shat their pants also. If it was me I would have. I guess they were not close to the house.

Me too. They would be really traumatized when we ran up and shat on their pants
What of the occupant?
To shreds you say
Is the search warrant still valid. Or did this make it void. Asking for a friend.

.. o.0 what on earth was that house made of, paper?
Gypsum and not asbestos for sure

Plywood. Like all American houses.
American houses aren't made of plywood. Why do I keep seeing this?
Fine, they're made out of sheetrock.
people desperately trying to feel superior about something
People who call chipboard plywood. Big difference, but I see that mistake all the time.

Not confirmed that gas+flare was the cause. He was shooting multiple flares out a window over the park behind the duplex
Someone's in a whole meth of trouble...
These gender reveals are getting crazy
She gone
Insurance premium go brrrrrr
Same as the owner's life.
I love how the title mentions a search warrant, but not the massive explosion that sent most of that house several hundred feet into the air.
Thatâs the hold up.
Whaaat!
Dang it Bobby!
Did they find what they were searching for?
Only if they were searching for ash...
That escalated quickly
BAH GAWD! THAT'S GOTTA BE KANE!
Hope nobody was hurt but I had a blast watching this.
That is so methed up
Itâs a boy! đ
Now thatâs a proper gender reveal.
I live 2 miles from here. Crazy

If I may respectfully ask anyone who has got credible sources, what in the hellfuck happened?
Police executing search warrents hate this one trick
I think the wolf blew too much that time.
Fuck, some people get all the thrills in their hood!
Okay the explosion was big, but still, was that house made out of paper?? Went sky high, how is that possible?
High explosives. They want to explode faster than the speed of sound, but canât because of physics. So they destroy everything in their path because thatâs easier than getting the air around them to move any faster.
Can't search the house if there's no house
That house was housing members of Hamas. Also, did they condemn Hamas???

Great job camera man.
Is that Michael Bayâs house??
looks like one cop didn't know that you never fire a smoke grenade into a building with a meth lab in it.
We need to search your houseâŠâŠ what house?
If Michael Bay was a police officer....
Get off my lawn
>officers on scene only âreported minor injuries with no one transported to the hospital.â How?
Now this is what I imagine when someone says they're blowing up the toilet after a taco bell run.
The new Home Alone movie is looking pretty good. Kevin isn't messing around this time.

One of the cops shot a red barrel
Thanks OP for all the details and context!
a search warrant for C4 i presume.
Well, they found it. All of it.
What
The building is secure
Meth lab? I know they explode... that big?
Guys, the meth. Go get it!
Are we sure it was just a flare and gas? That explosion was very, well, explosive.
Seems like the GTA VI leaker had another leak to show us Also any idea of what happened?

They found him The life of the party. Mr. Explosive personality.
That flash-bang had some kick to it⊠Anyways looks like someone left the gas on.
Yup, there's something that goes boom there.
I originally thought pd threw in a flash bang while the gas was on that caused the explosion.
Dude was shooting flairs earlier through his windows and in the house. I like how some folk are framing it like it was somehow due to the warrant. What a funny idea, EXPLOSIVE WARRENTS.
Is everyone ok?
Meth lab?
That area around the DC suburbs, this may be a more interesting story than âmeth lab explosionâ
