Three workers were injured after an explosion at a trucking business sent a fireball through a building filled with propane tanks, chemicals and tires.

The blaze at Basin Western in Grand Junction, Colo., sent employees fleeing a building quickly engulfed by flames and thick, black smoke.
The cause of the blaze was unknown. The fire caused an estimated $500,000 in damage, fire Capt. Mike Page said Wednesday.
Basin Western is a trucking company that handles bulk loads. Truck company official Bonnie Thompson said she was dispatching trucks from a motel room Wednesday. She said at least one truck and one trailer were lost.
