Authorities have launched a criminal investigation into a warehouse explosion in downtown Los Angeles that injured 11 firefighters, multiple law enforcement sources say.
The sources said there were no placards outside the warehouse warning firefighters about the butane.
City officials described Smoke Tokes as a"ghost business" because it doesn't appear in local regulatory records. The company is incorporated as a limited liability company with the state, the officials said, but the city has no record of it.Download theThe fire, in Los Angeles' Toy District, was reported at 6:26 p.m. After firefighters arrived, there were an explosion and a mayday call that the blaze may have spread to multiple buildings.
"As that butane ignited, it blew out of that commercial building like a blowtorch," said Eric Scott, a spokesman for the Los Angeles Fire Department. Los Angeles Fire Chief Ralph Terrazas said late Saturday that the 11 firefighters"are on the road to recovery."Andrew Blankstein is an investigative reporter for NBC News.
