2 News Oklahoma's Brodie Myers listened to Meshach Batson, who lives near the home.
"It shook the building a little bit, shook my windows. And at first, I kinda thought to myself, was that a transformer?"
The homeowners are facing tragedy, while the neighbors are shook up.
"It’s just devastating. I look at it and I’m just like, wow that’s crazy that things like this happen, but like I said, as long as the people that live there are OK, and nobody is unfortunately deceased, because we care about all of our neighbors in this community," Batson said.
The fire was under control about 20 minutes after crews arrived.
TFD is still working to learn what caused the fire and if an explosion was involved.
