Two people were injured when a home in the Nutbush area exploded after catching fire Wednesday evening.
“I was just four streets over doing my yard and I heard a loud boom and the next thing I know I hear fire trucks coming,” said Donnie Bishop.
Firefighters were already at the scene when the house exploded around 5 p.m.
Of the two people injured, firefighters said one went to the hospital while another left the scene. That man had serious facial and neck burns, said Lt. Robert Ilsley with the Memphis Fire Department.
