It happened at 11:04 this morning in Encino. A 3-story apartment building is on fire, and was caused by an explosion of some kind. The story can be found [here](http://www.nbc4.tv/news/1479669/detail.html).

I’m really hoping this isn’t what I think it is. I’m really hoping this is just a gas leak or something.
