Investigators Working To Determine Cause Of SW OKC Explosion

An entire southwest Oklahoma City neighborhood is dealing with the aftermath of a huge house explosion from Thursday afternoon.

A gas leak is being blamed, but there are big questions about just how the blast happened.

It appears this happened when a private contractor digging lines for AT&T cut through a 2-inch gas line.
