Explosion Threat at Southern California Chemical Tank Eliminated, Firefighters Say The past few days have seen southern California on high alert as a potentially catastrophic situation unfolded in Garden Grove, a city nestled between Los Angeles and Anaheim.
The threat of an explosion at a chemical tank owned by GKN Aerospace Transparency Systems has been mitigated, but not before the region was thrown into chaos.
Over 50,000 residents were evacuated from their homes after the tank's overheating and subsequent cracking brought the community face to face with the very real possibility of an explosion.
