Today 12/4/23 or for the rest of the world 4/12/23, a man being swatted (for shooting flares in a public park and firing random shots from a long barrel AR ) has filled his house with Natrual gas and upon the SWAT team forcibly entering his home detonated the natrual gas with either a shot from his AR or flare gun.

"As officers were attempting to execute a search warrant at the residence, the suspect discharged several rounds inside the home,” said ACPD. “Subsequently, an explosion occurred at the residence and officers continue to investigate the circumstances of the explosion." - ACPD

"A duplex where a suspect was involved in an ongoing incident with police exploded in a large fireball as police, including a SWAT armored vehicle, moved in. It followed the suspect repeatedly firing a flare gun over nearby Fields Park." - ARLNOW

As of right now no casualties have been reported besides the man inside of the house.

Aftermath of house :

Explosion (From a Distance):

UPDATED 12/5/23 or 5/12/23 -

Suspect name was James Yoo

Alex Wilson, the neighbor who took the video seen above — and shared worldwide on social media tonight — told ARLnow that the resident of the home was firing a rifle at police as they used the SWAT vehicle to try to get inside.

“When they rammed the front door he started firing an AR back at them,” he said. Wilson said he saw at least one officer injured following the explosion.

“He was able to walk but he was like holding his head,” said Wilson.

A man named James Yoo, listed in public records as the resident of the address to which police were initially dispatched, has been repeatedly posting paranoid screeds on his Linkedin account. One post from three days ago rants against his neighbors in the adjoining duplex unit.

Wilson — the neighbor who took the video of the explosion from his roof — described Yoo as a recluse and said he had aluminum foil covering the windows.

After the home was listed for sale a couple of years ago, Yoo chased would-be buyers off with a knife, according to Wilson. Real estate records show the home was taken off the market on at the end of 2021.

As a commenter has made me aware @Flatline_Miami he has a YouTube account where he posts paranoid content. As of right now no deaths have been reported. Besides his own. (I think). His account is "James Yoo" if you would like more info on that.

ARLNOW has updated their page with more info on the situation.

Sorry no Audio for this one

Several criminals die, after they tried to assault a home, they were greeted with shots and while trying to flee, a grenade fell into the car that ended up exploding. HAHAHAHAHAHA

This count as suicide?

Report if it's repost so I can delete it immediately

Fun fact, the kid saying, "Light it, Light it, Light it!" before the boom; Is the same kid yelling, "That's why we said no fireworks!" after the boom. -LOL.

This is an old post of mine, but this is what i did with the video a long time ago.

At least 218 deaths, and over 7000 people injured from that massive shock wave..it was so powerful that it was detected all the way by the United States Geological Survey as a seismic event of magnitude 3.3

Couldn’t find this on the site, so here it is.

The commentary cracks me up more than anything.

Mega Explosion. HD+ At least 44 people are dead, among them 12 firefighters. Hospitals are dealing with an overwhelming influx of patients, as more than 500 people have been injured. Authorities say the explosions happened when a shipment of explosives being stored in a container detonated.

Edit: source @Sellmyemail

Final toll was 173 dead, 8 missing/presumed dead.
