Three people were killed in an explosion at a Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department’s Training Center Friday morning.
The blast occurred around 7:30 a.m. local time at the county’s Biscailuz Training Center in East Los Angeles, which includes bomb squad officers and explosives specialists according to the Los Angeles Times.
The bomb squad was reportedly moving explosives when the powerful explosion happened. The windows of an SUV cruiser located 75 feet from the site of the burst were blown out by the bust.
Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office said the governor had been briefed on the reported explosion and offered full state assistance.
Attorney General Pam Bondi posted on X said she was in contact with state officials and that federal officers were on the scene of “what appears to be a horrific incident.”
The Los Angeles County Fire Department confirmed units were dispatched at 7:27 a.m. to attend to “a possible explosion.”
Police didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
This is a developing story.
