Early Sunday morning, a 7th Circle home exploded, causing over 50 surrounding homes were damaged from the blast, on of which was the Hadlock's residence. The cause of the explosion is under investigation. At the high school, other coloring books, toiletry kits, water and food were available to those in need.
