The Missouri authorities strive to determine the identity of a person who died in an explosion of a massive house taken from the camera.
A district outside Kansas City was shaken on Saturday morning after “a powerful explosion” in a unifamilial residence that killed a person and a dog.
The incident in the suburbs of Gladstone seriously damaged an adjacent house, broke the car windows nearby and sent flying debris in the street, said Gladstone firefighters Mike Desautels, Fox News Digital.
Desautels said that a “unrecognizable” body had been found on the scene. The identity of the deceased has not yet been released.

“A powerful explosion occurred earlier during the day in a unifamilial residence,” the city of Gladstone said on Saturday in a press release.
The city said the cause of the explosion remained under investigation.
Gladstone fire department Answer quickly on the scene, said the city.
Upon arrival, firefighters found that the house “completely destroyed” and the adjacent houses were also evacuated as a precaution, added the city. The emergency teams fought against the remaining flames when they arrived at noon.

The shock wave of the explosion was felt in several cities, according to Desautels, adding that hundreds of reports outside the city limits were made after the incident.
Images of a neighboring camera of a neighbor captured the moment when the debris of the horrible explosion slammed against their house and their car.
Nearby residents have also seen a massive smoke emerge from wood.
“We just went down to the scene and kissed a few family members there,” Glenn Hall told Fox News Digital.

A voicemail sent by the city alerted the residents to the demolition plans of the remaining property, according to a screenshot shared by Hall.
“This is an emergency message,” said voicemail. “As soon as the scene is published by the authorities, the city of Gladstone immediately begins the demolition of the property as well as cleaning the neighborhood.”
