1 dead, 1 missing after home explodes in Oakland Co.

ORION TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WOOD) — Firefighters found the remains of one  person and were searching for a second person after a house exploded in a  rural area north of Auburn Hills on Wednesday.

It happened around 8 p.m.off Coats Road south of Stanton Road in Oakland County’s Orion Township, according to WDIV, the NBC affiliate out of Detroit.

By the time firefighters arrived, the house was already engulfed in  flames. One firefighter described the scene to WDIV as “a complete  fireball.”

A woman was able to escape the house with only minor injuries. She  said her mother and father were still inside. Crews sifted through the  debris, searching for them.
