A woman was taken to the hospital after an explosion leveled her Victorville home, sparked a fire at her neighbor's house, and damaged several others across the street.
An explosion leveled at least one home and damaged several others early Wednesday in Victorville.
At least one woman was in the house at the time of the explosion. Her family breeds dogs, so they were at a dog show. Neighbors describe hearing loud bangs just before 3 a.m., and the last one felt like an earthquake shaking the entire neighborhood that sent debris flying."I heard her screaming, 'help me, call the police,' and she was on my back porch," Brunt said."And I just couldn't get to her because at the time they were telling us to get out the house, because of all the gas leak. So I had to get my kids out the house, but I did send the fire person back there to get her.
