Police said management told them that they believe the gas stove was left on accidentally and when a customer attempted to work the stove, possibly attempting to turn the gas off, an explosion occurred.
“While management does not believe the incident involves any criminality, we did want to make you aware of the situation as it occurred within Wharton,” the police department said on Facebook.
