FOX News Alert just moments ago. Whole place was in flames!

[vin-one]

Fox is showing big flames, still fighting it hard it looks like
Obvious debry field from blast, from on site reporter,
3 story condo's ripped the place to shreads.

Well, if it is a terrorist attack, we can probably expect more explosions throughout the day.

That would be my expectation if it's "real."

I'm with you on natural gas. Why would you bomb an apartment complex at 1130 AM on a weekday if you wanted to inflict a large number of casualties?

[philetus]

One female voice on Fox was already saying that the probable cause is heating fuel.

[blam]

"How tall is this apartment building?"

Self contained, 3-story condo. Fox News.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Thanks for the report....meth lab.....somebody else guessed that.

[Nea Wood]

You are near by???

Yes, Mo, my workplace is about a block away.

[nhoward14]

Holy crap! Just YESTERDAY there was a note on my apt door (in Dallas) from management saying that the FBI has put out a warning that terrorists might try to rent apartments and then leave bombs in them and to look out for suspicious blah blah blah.... I hope this is just a case of an accident and not terrorism. It would be too creepy that within 24 hours of getting the note, a complex blows up...

[Skel]

KNBC, KABC, and KCAL running live shots too.
KTLA doesn't have it up on their site yet but should soon.

I agree, but if that's it, the speculation will be immense. Now bomb squad on scene

[Dog]

Cause fear..

[maquiladora]

Holy Crap....I need to reload FR faster.

Is this a gas explosion or terrorism?

[Liberal Classic]

Al-Qaeda may target US apartment buildings: FBI (Like the Chechens did in Russia)

[The Magical Mischief Tour]

Gas explosions usually blow themselfs out according to the on-scene news dude... this one is burning very hot and very fast. Was basically on the ground by the arrival of the FD.

Debris is scattered all over the place some peices over 80 to 100 yards away.

[dennis1x]

yes...and be careful if you come across any scuba divers also...the FBI is putting out all kinds of crap now to cover their @$$. chains are being yanked all around.

[Joe Hadenuf]

Local news now stating multiple victims.
