Two people were injured from an apparent fireworks explosion at a home in Hayward on Thursday, police said. Authorities say a house fire was first reported at 12:18 p.m. near the 27000 block of Mandarin Avenue.

The company indicated that multiple people died in the incident three days before the Fourth of July, but officials have not issued a determination.

A number of municipalities across Northern California have put their Fourth of July fireworks shows on hold after the explosion at a fireworks warehouse in Esparto. Cal Fire says seven people are unaccounted for after the massive explosion at Devastating Pyrotechnics on Tuesday.

Explosions continued more than 24 hours after the blast caused several spot fires and scattered large pieces of debris across a wide area, officials said.

Many Bay Area locations use fireworks from other vendors than the company involved in Wednesday’s devastating fire and explosion.

Some residents from the small Yolo County community of Esparto recounted what they witnessed during a fireworks explosion that has left seven unaccounted for.
