Around 4:30 a.m., bomb techs blasted the explosives found in a home near 6200 South and 2300 East, which could be heard and seen from miles away. “Early this morning our bomb techs were able to detonate both explosive packages that were found at the structure,” explained Assistant Chief Dustin Dern with the Unified Fire Department. “Nobody was hurt, that went as well as could be expected.”“There was a fire resulting from that explosion, we had crews staged and ready to respond and they’ve contained that fire and there’s no fire damage to surrounding structures,” Chief Dern said.
