Seven missing after massive explosion at California fireworks warehouse
A warehouse storing fireworks in Northern California exploded on Tuesday, leaving seven people missing as of Wednesday evening, officials said.
Dramatic video footage captured by KCRA 3 News, a Sacramento broadcaster, showed smoke pouring from the building's roof before a massive explosion created a fireball that seemed to engulf much of the warehouse, accompanied by an echoing boom. Hundreds of fireworks appeared to be going off and were sparkling within the smoke. Photos of the aftermath showed multiple destroyed buildings and a large area covered in gray ash.
