Fairfield, OH – One Killed in Explosion on Chateau Way
Fairfield, OH (December 5, 2020) – One person lost their life following an explosion incident in the Fairfield area on Saturday morning. At around 12:45 a.m., on December 5, the Fairfield Fire Department and emergency crews were called to the site of a home explosion on Chateau Way.
Reports from authorities show that a home located in the 5200 block of Chateau Way exploded for unknown reasons. Crews arrived at the site of the incident and located a home engulfed in flames. Firefighters immediately went to work battling the blaze and attempted to remove trapped victims from the home. They located a male in his mid-70s near the patio door. As firefighters tried to revive the man, a secondary explosion occurred. The firefighters became trapped inside the building but were able to be extricated without incident. The male victim was rushed to Mercy Hospital where he succumbed to his injuries. At this time, the cause of the incident remains under investigation.
We would like to extend our deepest condolences to the family of the victim who lost their life in this accident. Our thoughts are with them at this time.
Fatal Explosion Incidents in Ohio
Explosions throughout the United States claim the lives of numerous people each year. Thousands more are left with life-altering injuries, overwhelming pain, and suffering, as well as stacking medical costs for treatment. When victims lose their lives in these unimaginable incidents, their families are often left to endure the financial and emotional struggles they leave behind.
Although there are many reasons why explosions take place, a large percentage of these incidents are directly related to the negligent, reckless, and careless actions of others. When manufacturers are negligent in putting together products, when work environments are unsafe, and when appliances malfunction, it can have devastating consequences for those in close proximity. When victims lose their lives in explosions, due to the negligence of other parties, their families should seek legal guidance from a competent National wrongful death attorney as soon as possible. Families may be entitled to compensation that can help them cover the impacts of lost wages, medical costs, funeral arrangements, and various other costs they face.
