On Saturday morning, a devastating house explosion occurred in Plum Borough, Pennsylvania, resulting in the loss of three lives. Among the victims were Casey and Keegan Clontz, a father and son known for their love of the outdoors. The explosion, which caused three homes to be destroyed and several others to sustain damage, is still under investigation.
Authorities have not yet identified the other person who died in the incident, and one individual remains unaccounted for. Another person is currently hospitalized. The cause of the explosion is still unknown.
The tight-knit community of Plum Borough is in shock over the tragic loss. The Clontz family was well-known and loved by many in the neighborhood. Casey and Keegan enjoyed spending time together hunting and fishing, and their bond was evident to all who knew them.
As the investigation continues, the community is coming together to support those affected by the explosion. Community events planned for Monday, including a borough council meeting and public hearing, have been canceled, and the Plum Borough Municipal Center is providing amenities such as food, charging stations, and shower facilities for those in need.
Officials are expected to provide further updates on the incident later today.
