Gallatin Fire Chief Jeff Beaman said the call came in just before 7:30 a.m. for a home that had exploded in the Airport Road area. Upon arrival, fire officials found the home with a fire in the middle.
According to Sumner County EMS, that individual seemed to be outside of the structure when it exploded and they were able to get to her quickly.
At this time, they are still doing damage assessments. There's no danger or hazards to the community as they've shut down gas lines in the area for safety precautions.
September 11, 2001 is a day most associate with terror and tragedy. Austin Pollack shares a story from that day about hope and persistence: the effort to save a little girl’s life – with an organ donation. The problem? The young patient was in Houston, and her life-saving liver here in Nashville. With the grounding of all civilian aircraft, how could it be done? “Nobody ever said this isn’t possible.”
