Carl and Merna Sneed were killed by a gas explosion in March of 2008

A lawsuit is settled more than four years after a house explosion killed a Columbia couple.

The daughters of Carl and Merna Sneed sued Ameren after a gas explosion at their parents east Columbia home in March of 2008.

Their attorney, Neil Johnson of Kansas City, said the details of the settlement still have to be approved by the court, but will be kept confidential.

The case was set to go to trial Tuesday.
