Just so you know, "beforeitsnews" is one of the most well known hoax news websites in existence. It is basically a blog where anyone can submit a "news" story, or just a giant hoax, and as long as it's not spam the editors would post it on the website.

Very unlikely. For one thing there wasn't any gas leaking when the authorities got there to investigate. If it was caused by a gas leak you would have had a gas pipe blowing gas out full blast. Wasn't happening.

Also it's not going to blow the house next door into little pieces.

It's sounding like they've decided to use a gas leak as an excuse though, but no explanation why they didn't find a gas leak on site. Gas leak won't fly.
Marion County Prosecutor Terry Curry said investigators were specifically looking for information about a white van seen in the neighborhood the day of the explosion, which a source told RTV6 had been impounded at a south side motel called the Cavalier's Resort, near Thompson Road and U.S. 31, a few days after the explosion.
RTV6 confirmed that Mark Leonard, the boyfriend of Monserrate Shirley, who owned the home that exploded, worked as grounds and security manager at the facility.

Oh yes it is!! Let gas leak into a closed room for 24 hours, then ignite it. It would create a blast overpressure up to 8psi which would destroy the house, and the house next to it.
Pressure Effects[3]
10 pounds per square inch (69 kPa): Reinforced concrete buildings severely damaged, Severe heart and lung damage, Limbs can be blown off
4 pounds per square inch (28 kPa): Most buildings collapse except concrete buildings, Injuries universal, Fatalities occur
2 pounds per square inch (14 kPa): Residential structures collapse Brick walls destroyed Injuries common Fatalities may occur [edit]Overpressure calculation (explosive)

Police have two people in custody for questioning following the deadly explosion on the city's south side. Officials confirmed Tuesday that gas was intentionally released into a home at the center of the investigation. The resulting explosion killed two Richmond Hill residents and injured seven others.

Yes, "beforeitsnews" was almost banned from ATS, and is banned on other discussion forums, because it is constantly the source of "Sorcha Faal" and other banned hoaxers like "Michael Cohen". It really is a haven for fake news... There is a reason it's called "before it's news"... because it's not real news... If you can find better sources I recommend it.

Looks like it may have been an intentional gas ignition.

Here's a quote from that link:
Sources indicate to Fox59 News that the meter was in tact and data was recovered from it. The data revealed there was a surge of gas introduced into the house the day of the explosion.
Now of course in the Fox piece they were mentioning 'intentionally released' .hmmmm.. I'm not sure the two *automatically* equate, (at this point), seems premature, but perhaps they may in time be-- shown-- too.
Looks like it may have been an intentional gas ignition.

that's pure evil. I was wondering how so much gas could get in there before they smelled it. I'm a propane gas tech. I wonder how they did it. assuming they didn't want to be anywhere near the inside of that place, they may have disconnected the line at the meter, and maybe just attached a hose to it and stuffed it thru a window

Officials: Gas intentionally released into home in south side explosion, two in custody
9:04 p.m. EST, November 20, 2012 I
Indianapolis Police have two people in custody for questioning following the deadly explosion on the city's south side. Fox59 has confirmed Bob Leonard and David Gill are being questioned by police.
Officials confirmed Tuesday that gas was intentionally released into a home at the center of the investigation. The resulting explosion killed two Richmond Hill residents and injured seven others.
Sources indicate to Fox59 News that the meter was in tact and data was recovered from it. The data revealed there was a surge of gas introduced into the house the day of the explosion.
Additionally, neighbors said they saw a white van that belonged to Mark Leonard, boyfriend of homeowner Moncy Shirley, pull up to the home the day of the explosion. Two unknown men were spotted walking quickly away from the home.
One of the men who was taken into custody Tuesday was picked up in the 4100 block of Rybolt. The other man was taken into custody at Glen Highland Heights Trailer Park on Foltz Road. Fox59 has learned police are looking for a third person to bring into custody for questioning.
Police conducted a search warrant at the home of one of the men taken in for questioning. Neighbors said police took golf clubs, gun shells and an artillery box.
Law enforcement officials told The Indianapolis Star on Tuesday that they suspect gas was intentionally released into a Richmond Hill home before a spark caused it to explode, setting off the chain of blasts in the Southeastside subdivision that killed two people.
Authorities said the fumes seeped from a manipulated pipe or stove and gathered within the house at 8349 Fieldfare Way, until a small spark ignited it.
“The place was full of gas,” a source close to the investigation told The Star, speaking on the condition of anonymity.
A second law enforcement source told The Star that remote detonation is the leading theory now of how the Nov. 10 blast occurred, but more investigation is needed before they can be sure.
Neither source would say what evidence led them in that direction.
The law enforcement sources would not say whether authorities had zeroed in on a particular suspect but said the person had at least a rudimentary understanding of how to cause explosions.
