Explosion rips through home in Merstham

A HOUSE exploded in a giant inferno late last night.

The suspicious fire broke out just after 10pm in a property on Huddleston Crescent, Merstham, and quickly spread to the rest of the house.

Six fire engines spent hours trying to extinguish the blaze, but the house was completely gutted by the time it was put out.

Fire investigators remain on the scene.
