We now know more about some some of the victims of an explosion which rocked a Central Coast neighborhood, destroying or damaging two dozen homes.
The blast on Jackie Lane in Santa Maria Wednesday afternoon totally destroyed one home. The 83-year-old resident is in critical condition, with burn injuries.
A woman in a neighboring home which was heavily damaged is in stable condition. There are no updates on the other two people who were hurt.
Fire investigators say a natural gas leak was the cause of the explosion. The number of homes damaged was initially reported as around 10, but was later updated to 23.
