VIDEOS: One dead in Indiana home explosion amid severe weather

PHOTOS: One person is dead following a home explosion in Portage, Indiana, according to the area police department. Despite reports that the Northwest Indiana home explosion may have occurred in connection with severe weather threats that passed through the area, authorities said investigators are still working to determine the cause of the blast.

“During the severe weather event, the Portage Fire Department was dispatched to a reported structure fire on the north side of the city,” Portage police said in a news release. “Due to widespread storm damage, debris, and hazardous conditions, emergency responders experienced an extended response time while attempting to access the incident location.”

Authorities have not yet released any information concerning the person killed or additional injuries. Locals are asked to avoid the area while officials continue to investigate. SkyCam9 flew above the scene, at Harrison and Jefferson, where a gas flame was still visible. Aerial shots captured emergency crews on the ground canvassing the area. Debris from the blast could be seen on the property of a nearby neighbor’s home.
