A man is dead following a propane explosion near the McCall Golf Club.

A girl, who was pulled from the rubble following the explosion was flown to Boise and is in the Intensive Care Unit.

CBS 2 News reports, Crews were called out just after 4:15 Sunday evening. When they arrived, crews say they received reports of the teen screaming for help from the back of the burning wreckage.

Two firefighters forced their way through burning rubble to the teenager and pulled her to safety.

The McCall Fire Department says the blast destroyed the home, “leaving a crater and debris field hundreds of yards across.”

The Idaho State Fire Marshals office alongside acting MFD Chief Garrett de Jong are working to determine the cause of the explosion.
