Phoenix Fire Department spokesperson Capt. Scott Douglas reported hazardous material and exploding propane tanks at the location of the fire, near 109 N. 40th St. During a press briefing, Douglas said firefighters responded about 5 p.m. to reports of a propane yard on fire where they saw several tanks burning.

Google Maps shows a business that is temporarily closed in that area called Bill’s Propane Service at that address.”Be advised, due to exploding propane tanks please stay out of the immediate hazard zone outlined at the scene by Phoenix PD,” Douglas’ email reads.
