"We heard an explosion. We live behind the house it knocked things off the walls, we saw a mushroom cloud go up into the air," said Andrew Matthews, who helped pull victims out of the house.
"I was washing dishes and there was this huge boom. It was so big and it shook the whole house, the foundation, the floor — everything," said Joshua Lamb, who also helped pull victims out of the house.
"I ran over there quick to see what was going on," Matthews said. "There was a lady yelling. You couldn't see anything of the house. There was just a door structure that led into the basement."
"There was one gal and I got her toward the street," Lamb added. "Then someone said, 'my boyfriend needs help.' Another guy was in the basement so I ran down and helped him out."
Firefighters were able to quickly contain the fire and then found the third victim dead inside the home, authorities said.
Family members told KSTP Reporter Callan Gray that Eugene Meyer, the homeowner, was the man who died in the explosion.
His son described Meyer as "always caring, if you needed help or anything my dad would be right there."
The investigation remains ongoing.
Investigators are still on the scene in Princeton.
