    Two adults were severely injured in a Seffner home explosion Thursday afternoon, according to Hillsborough County Fire Rescue spokesperson Jessica Coy.

    Details are limited right now, she said, but first responders were called to a home on King Charles Circle around 4:25 p.m.

    When first responders arrived, they said about half the home had collapsed. Two adults were taken to a hospital trauma center with severe injuries, Coy said.
