Chief Drexel Patrick says a neighbor called dispatch after hearing an
explosion. He said firefighters arrived quickly, but the home had already
collapsed.
He said one
victim, woman, was found in a wheelchair. Firefighters also found five dogs
that perished in the blaze.
Patrick said
the cause of the fire is under investigation, but it doesn't seem suspicious.
