TWO men have been taken to hospital following reports of an explosion in Smith's Wood this afternoon.
The blast is believed to have been caused by equipment being used to cultivate cannabis at a property in Burton's Park Road.
Emergency services had been called to the scene at around 2.30pm. Two men, both in their 20s, were taken to Queen Elizabeth Hospital, in Birmingham, having suffered "flash burns."
It has been confirmed their injuries are not life-threatening.
West Midlands Fire Service said that crews from Sheldon and Sutton Coldfield had been dispatched to the scene. Photos tweeted earlier show that police officers have put up tape while investigations into the incident continue.
