Evacuations are underway after multiple explosions at a fireworks warehouse resulted in a fire in Northern California's Yolo County, officials said Tuesday evening. It happened in the community of Esparto. The Yolo County Sheriff's Office confirmed the building was a fireworks warehouse in the area of county roads 23 and 86A. Yolo County officials issued mandatory evacuations for a one-mile stretch as a result of the fire. The evacuation area is on the south side of Highway 16, stretching south to County Road 23 and stretching west from Interstate 505 to County Road 85B. The small community of Madison is in the evacuation zone. Several structures on the property had caught fire, with the flames spreading into multiple grass fires with a combined burn area of approximately 80 acres, the Esparto Fire Protection District said in a Tuesday night news conference. The initial explosion happened around 5:50 p.m. CBS Sacramento spoke to some people who said they had loved ones believed to have been inside the facility at the time of the incident, but they had not been able to contact them. Law enforcement officials did not comment on whether there were any injuries or deaths when asked by members of the media during the press conference. Law enforcement officials said streets around the evacuation zone and leading into the facility have been shut down.
