Several people were injured Tuesday after a small explosion near a filming site in the hills north of Los Angeles sparked a fire, officials said.

The location was later determined not to be a film set, but the blast involved equipment owned by individuals who are in the movie industry, said Deputy Rick Velazquez of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department's Arson Explosives Detail.

Three people sustained critical burn injuries and were transported to a local hospital, Los Angeles County Fire Department spokesman and Battalion Chief Roland Sprewell told CNN.

Although initial reports said that the explosion was on a film set, the Santa Clarita Valley Signal updated its story on Tuesday night with confirmation from Fire Department spokesperson Jonathan Matheny that the explosion actually occurred at "a business within the industrial park". However, authorities later described it as taking place at an industrial park.

The industrial park houses businesses that "range the entire gamut", including a brewery, storage units, recreational vehicle storage areas and parked tractor-trailers, Matheny said.


The men taken to the hospital were expected to survive, Matheny said.

A fourth man later "walked into the ER" for treatment, Matheny said.

Rangel also told the Associated Press that the fire spread to a hillside, but the flames were quickly put out by firefighters.

There was no immediate word on what caused the explosion.
