A home in Wayne County was reduced to rubble early Sunday morning.
The home along Tiffany Road in Paupack Township near Hawley looked like a ball of fire after an explosion.
Firefighters say the 59-year-old woman who lives here was able to get out in time. Neighbor Jerome Plaza rushed to carry here farther away.
"When we found her she was actually crawling her way over. We were like right over there, saw her, put her out and carried her into the woods," Plaza said.
Firefighters said the woman who lived here just bought the home.
She was flown to Lehigh Valley Burn Center with burns on her face, legs, and hands.
Fire officials tell Newswatch 16 the explosion could be heard from 15 miles away.
"It was just like, did something hit the house? Was there just an earthquake? Did a sink hole happen? Did something blow up like a transformer? In this case, it apparently was a house," Plaza said.
