A house exploded in Mooresville, North Carolina. Records show it is owned by NFL player Caleb Farley

MOORESVILLE, N.C. (WCNC) — One person was killed and another was transported to the hospital after a Mooresville home near Lake Norman exploded overnight, Iredell County emergency officials confirmed. 

Multiple agencies responded to the explosion at a home along Barber Loop and Old Arborway Road, which is just off Brawley School Road, which happened right around midnight. When the Iredell County Sheriff's Office arrived, deputies reported a heavy smell of natural gas on the property. Hazmat crews were immediately called to assist with the situation.

According to Iredell County Emergency Management, one person was exiting the home when first responders arrived on the scene. That person was transported to Atrium Main in Charlotte with non-life-threatening injuries. Another person, officials report, was later found dead after a search of the debris. He was later identified as 61-year-old Robert M. Farley.

WCNC Charlotte reviewed property tax records for the home and confirmed the owner of the home is Caleb Farley, a cornerback for the Tennessee Titans and alum of Maiden High School in Catawba County. Caleb Farley also played college football at Virginia Tech. Caleb Farley was not at the home when the explosion happened.

"We're doing everything we can to support Caleb and his family," Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said during a press availability for the team Tuesday. "We'll do everything we can to be there for him. That's the most important thing. He has to focus on him. Everything else is pretty trivial."

Star running back Derrick Henry also responded to media questions about the explosion. 

"Praying for Caleb," Henry said during the press conference. "I'm praying for his family. I'm sending my condolences, we all send our condolences during this tragic situation ... We're praying for him. We love him, and we're all here for him."

The massive 6,391 square-foot home is a total loss along with several vehicles, Iredell County officials report. 

Neighbors told WCNC Charlotte they heard an explosion that startled several residents.

"Almost right at midnight I heard a loud explosion, and it shook the house," a neighbor said. "I got up, me and my wife went outside and I heard one of my other neighbors and we started walking through the neighborhood to find out what happened."

"It's amazing," the neighbor said. "It's hard to believe that this happened. You see it on the news everywhere, things like this, but until it happens in your own neighborhood you never know."
