GALLATIN, Tenn. (WTVF) — The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said a house explosion in Gallatin looked intentional, though the investigation into what happened would continue.
The explosion happened on Chaffin Court, where it seriously injured one woman.
We break down what we know in the player above.
Gallatin Fire Chief Jeff Beaman said the call came in just before 7:30 a.m. for a home that had exploded in the Airport Road area. Upon arrival, fire officials found the home with a fire in the middle.
According to Sumner County EMS, that individual seemed to be outside of the structure when it exploded and they were able to get to her quickly.
At this time, they are still doing damage assessments. There's no danger or hazards to the community as they've shut down gas lines in the area for safety precautions.
This is a story I immediately went home and showed my boys - young athletes with big dreams. The Vanderbilt football team's success has stolen the spotlight - what I love about Steve Layman's story is he reveals the individual hardships it took to get there. As Clark Lea says, "we all have scuff marks." This team proves perseverance pays off!
