It is not clear how or why the explosion happened.
Authorities called the explosion an isolated incident and said there is no further threat to the public.
Autopsies will be performed Monday, said Lehigh County Coroner Scott Grim.
The FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) are among the agencies at the scene.
