MUSKEGON, Mich. (WOOD) - Police want to question a second person about a house that blew up in Muskegon on Sept. 23.

Police want to find 19-year-old Terry Lee Thompson Jr. and ask him about the explosion that leveled an abandoned house in the 1600 block of Elwood Street.

Other abandoned residences on both sides were damaged. One had its windows blown out and the other lost its roof. Flying debris also damaged some nearby vehicles.

A 16-year-old boy has already been charged in connection with the incident. Police say he was stealing scrap metal in the house when he hit a gas line, causing the blast.
