One person died in Smyrna home explosion on Sunday

SMYRNA, Tenn. (WTVF — One person has died after a house explosion in Smyrna over the weekend.

This was on St. Michael’s Lane. Two people were in the home and one person was transported to a local hospital. The male victim has died, according to a PIO with the town of Smyrna.

Firefighters did a great job keeping the fire from spreading to other homes. There's no official word yet on the cause, but neighbors said it may have had to do with a hot water tank explosion in the garage.

They say an elderly couple lives there. The woman is OK.
