A new video has emerged of the Christmas morning blast in Nashville.
The short clip shows what appears to be a police officer walking in the street about half a block from a parked RV. The lights from a police car can be seen flashing on the other end of the block.
The cop exits the frame just before the blast occurs at 13 seconds into the video. The explosion flash is followed by heavy smoke and flying debris.
The rest of the minute-long clip shows the street shrouded in black smoke, with a fire burning in the background.
Chatter in the audio at the beginning of the video appears to be referring to instructions that area residents not walk their dogs at that time, along with a comment that things would open up in a couple of hours.
One local who was walking his pooch was stopped by an officer moments before the explosion, likely saving his life.
