Los Angelese kesklinnas Little Tokyo piirkonnas oli võimas plahvatus, millele järgnes tulekahju. Kohal on FBI. Vähemalt 11 tuletõrjujat said teadaolevalt vigastada, neist 3 raskelt.
Põlema süttis mitu hoonet. Tuli sai teadaolevalt alguse kanepiõli vabrikust. Praegu pole täpselt teada, mis tulekahju põhjustas.
Koroonaepideemia ajal olid müstilised plahvatused ja tulekahjud ka Hiina koroonaviiruse epoitsentris Wuhanis.
