A dog has died and one person was rushed to the hospital after a house explosion in Dartmouth early Tuesday morning.

 

Crews responding to Sagamore Drive around 1 a.m. found heavy fire and explosions coming from the garage.

 

All residents evacuated from the home before first responders arrived, but one was transported to the hospital with burns that are believed to be serious, but non-life-threatening.

 

Three dogs were also inside the home at the time of the explosion, officials said.

 

Neighbors said the explosion was so loud it woke them up.
