A house in a Derby street this week exploded - sending out 'earthquake-like' shockwaves.

Emergency services were first called to reports of a possible gas explosion at a terraced property in Eden Street, Alvaston, at around 7.24pm on Tuesday.

Police, fire crews and gasworkers remained at the scene more than 17 hours later.

One man was seriously injured and remains in hospital and a dog was also found with injuries overnight.

Residents in the area went from enjoying a normal Tuesday night to, within minutes, being at the heart of a serious incident - with some residents evacuated with no idea when they'd be allowed back again.
