Elderly Woman Survives House Explosion

(Cinnaminson, NJ) -- An elderly New Jersey woman is lucky to be alive considering her house blew up with her in it. The split-level home blew-up this past Tuesday night and witnesses say they saw 92-year-old Marian Sands standing in a doorway of the nearly demolished house. She had singed hair, a bloody face and her little dog in her arms. Sands was taken to Cooper University Hospital and is expected to be alright. Officials believe a gas leak caused the blast.
