A massive tankleaking toxic chemicals into the skyover Garden Grove is now at risk of exploding, officials warned.
The Orange County Fire Authority on Friday gave an update on the dangerous leak, which forced mass evacuations in the area a day earlier.
“We have a tank that is actively in crisis, for lack of a better word,” OCFA Division Chief Craig Covey said in an announcement alongside other officials.
“There are literally two options left remaining: one, the tank fails and spills a total of about 6 to 7,000 gallons of very bad chemicals into the parking lot in that area,” he continued.
“Or two, the tank goes into a thermal runaway and blows up, affecting the tanks around them that have chemicals in them as well.”
