Fox News provided a more in-depth report on the explosion and provided witness statements:
Several people were injured in a large explosion Saturday at a senior living apartment complex in Austintown, Ohio.
The explosion, which took out a large portion of the Phoenix House apartment building, happened just before 1 p.m. local time, FOX 8 reported.
Austintown Fire Department Assistant Chief Tom O’Hara told the outlet several people were injured, though no fatalities were immediately confirmed.
Resident Cindy Duke told FOX 8 the explosion “felt like a bomb.”
Another resident, Don Lampley, who has no legs, told the outlet he was watching the Ohio State game with a friend when “there was a big, loud blast, then BOOM!”
The cause of the explosion has not yet been released.
The Austintown Township Police Department and Mahoning County Sheriff’s Office did not immediately respond to inquiries from Fox News Digital.
The explosion comes a year after a Chase Bank exploded in Youngstown, Ohio.

WPXI reported the explosion at the Chase Bank Building was due to a cut gas line:
The National Transportation Safety Board has wrapped up its first full day on the scene of a deadly building explosion that happened at a Chase bank in Youngstown.
NTSB officials say that their preliminary investigation has led them to believe that a cut gas line caused the explosion.
Officials say crews cut a gas line they did not know was pressurized.
The line was cut in the basement of the building.
Crews reported smelling no gas but knew something was wrong after a third cut and pulled the fire alarm. The explosion happened just six minutes later.
“There is nothing at this point to indicate there was anything nefarious about what happened. All the indications are that this was very much an accident,” said Tom Chapman with the NTSB.
