A propane tank exploded on the porch of a residence Wednesday evening resulting in the home catching fire.
Attala County Fire Department responded to the call on Attala Road 4215 near the Possumneck area at approximately 9:40 p.m. Sallis, Carmack, and Ethel Volunteers also assisted.
The two-story home sustained extensive fire damage to the second story rooms according to ACFD Chief Tim Cox.
The cause of the fire may be from a fish cooker that boiled over on the back porch. No one was injured in the fire.
