The fire caused by the up to three explosions that claimed the life of 78-year-old William Harrison and injured Robert Kent was put out by multiple fire departments, with an investigation into the cause of the fire quickly getting underway shortly after.
During a press conference detailing the investigative findings, Houston County Sheriff Donald Valenza said the homeowner was trying to clean the bottom of his pond with chemical compounds. The chemicals they were mixing were highly explosive, with the men essentially creative homemade bombs for cleaning purposes. The entire scene is still being looked into by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and by the FBI.
Sheriff Valenza said he is also still waiting on a statement from Kent, who is still undergoing recovery and was transported to Atlanta for treatment on his burns.
