A big explosion caused a huge fire in an Indianapolis neighbourhood in the Richmond Hill subdivision damaging 80 houses.
2 people were killed and at least 7 people were injured in the incident that happened at about 11 p.m. on Saturday.
2 houses were totally destroyed while another 31 other houses were so badly damaged that they may have to be demolished.
About 200 other people evacuated from the neighbourhood.
The explosion could be felt at least three miles away.
Authorities are still investigating the cause of the explosion.
This is disaster and I am very sad and sorry for all the victims, their families and friends.
