The deputy chief said that the state fire marshal is on the scene and that Lakeville police received more than 80 phone calls regarding the blast, which Kornmann said some reported hearing as far away as Farmington.
The blast left wood, metal and insulation across a wide area of the neighborhood, with some insulation in trees and resting several hundred yards from where the truck was.
On Friday night, police initially responded to the scene around 11:30 p.m. after a loud boom erupted on the block.
