Security footage captured the moment a massive house explosion killed three people and damaged at least 39 homes in the southern Indiana city of Evansville.

The blast was reported around 1 p.m. on Wednesday and had a 100-foot radius, Evansville Fire Department Chief Mike Connelly said. Police have shut down North Weinbach Avenue, where the explosion occurred, along with neighboring streets that could be seen strewn with debris.

A total of 39 houses were damaged by the explosion, but Connelly said the department has not confirmed how many of the houses were occupied when the explosion happened because 'some were too unstable to enter.'

'Debris is strewn over a 100-foot radius,' including 'typical construction materials' such as wooden boards, window glass and insulation, Connelly said.

Authorities are continuing their search of area, but Connelly warned there could be more victims.

The identities of the people who died would not be released until the next of kin has been notified, Dave Anson, chief deputy coroner for Vanderburgh County, told The Associated Press.

The cause of the explosion has not been determined, but the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives are investigating.

That neighborhood would be more likely to be meth lab than charging an EV

The home that exploded is marked as a “halfway house” on Google maps. #evansville #WeinbachAve #Explosion

Thanks for posting the YouTube vid.

I hate watching any kind of media on Daily Fail's bloated, lagging website that grinds my computer to a halt whenever I click on anything over there.

Same thing in Indianapolis years ago.
That one was insurance fraud gone bad, explosion killed the neighbors.
Filled house with nat gas, used microwave oven on delayed start to ignite.

That was my fist thought. Charging an electric vehicle with a couple of propane tanks in the trunk.

I agree.
This site looks like a gas explosion rather than a major fire.
