A house in Maine exploded and a man was seriously injured when someone used butane to try to extract a psychoactive compound from marijuana, state police said.
The explosion took place Sunday in Auburn. Police said the investigation determined the explosion occurred because of the use of the gas to extract THC from the marijuana.
The explosion left the house uninhabitable, police said. They said the investigation was still going on on Monday and results would be forwarded to a county prosecutor’s office for review.
