A bungalow was destroyed in a suspected gas explosion in Newton Longville, Buckinghamshire, on Sunday morning. The incident occurred around 9:44 a.m. and was captured on doorbell video.
Authorities reported that one person sustained injuries and was taken to a hospital for treatment. The individual is believed to be a resident of the destroyed bungalow. A Doberman dog from the property was also taken to a veterinarian.
Footage from the scene shows bricks and debris being propelled onto the street, causing damage to nearby homes and vehicles. Plumes of black smoke rose from the wreckage as residents gathered in the vicinity.

One local reported hearing the blast from as far as three miles away in Bletchley.
