Firefighters were called to a huge fire at a pallet yard in Perris, California.

The blaze was large enough to be visible for miles and continued to burn until the early morning hours with explosions being heard at random, caused by propane tanks contained within the yard and exposed to the heat.

Cal Fire and Riverside County Fire department responded en masse with multiple ladder trucks, engines, and 58 firefighters. Riverside County Sheriffs responded to the fire as well, assisting with closing the roads leading to the massive blaze.

The fire was finally contained at about 10:15 am. Firefighters remained on scene for hours after the containment to continue on with an investigation surrounding the cause of the inferno.

Arson investigators responded to the scene to aid in the investigation after suspicion that the fire could’ve been caused by arson.

One person, a resident in an area near the fire, reported witnessing how it all began. ''I saw the fire start, and it didn’t look right. It started in one area and spread fast to all the pallets in the back and all around the building.''

Fortunately, no injuries were reported but damage from the fire caused a loss of $300.000.
