(NECN/WKYC) - Authorities blame built-up pressure in natural gas lines for a house explosion in the Ohio town of Fairport Harbor, northeast of Cleveland.

A dozen or more fires were reported, but there are no reports of injuries.

Residents were ordered at first to leave the town, but were then told to turn off gas lines and stay inside.
