Propane Gas Leak Call In Anza Deemed Safe In Anza: Cal Fire

ANZA, CA— Cal Fire/Riverside County Fire Department's hazardous materials crew made sure a stretch of Anza was safe Monday after reports that a 500-gallon propane tank had spilled.

Just after noon, the crew answered the call that a 500-gallon propane tank valve had blown off at a property in the 60700 block of Devils Ladder Road, just off Highway 74, in Anza.

They determined no threat to waterways or the public, and no evacuations were ordered.

According to Cal Fire spokesperson Karina Espinoza, the propane tank was fully filled upon the crew's arrival and "off-gassed" until the gas company arrived at the scene.

One patient suffered minor injuries but declined transport to the hospital. No information was otherwise available.
