An explosion at a Medina apartment complex early Thursday morning has reportedly left one man dead and more injured.
At about 3:15 a.m. Thursday, an explosion at the Medina Village Apartments on Springbrook Road is what started a fire that burned for hours. The man who died is reportedly an 18-year-old resident of the apartment complex and was bed-ridden. Reports say that both of the man's parents were badly burned in the fire and transported to Metro Health in Cleveland.
As of 9 a.m., the gas company was waiting for Medina Fire crews to put out "hot spots" inside the complex.
The investigation into what caused the fire is ongoing.
In Akron Wednesday, a home exploded at the corner of Courtland and South Hawkins Avenues. That investigation is still ongoing.
