SACRAMENTO, Calif. (KCRA) — Two people suffered burn injuries while working on site at a Sacramento apartment complex on Tuesday, fire officials said.
Sacramento Fire Capt. Justin Sylvia said three workers were painting a unit in the 5400 block of Carlson Drive with spray primer when they heard a loud explosion and saw a flash of fire that quickly went away.
Two of the men were burned, with one of them being taken to the hospital for burns to his hands and face. He was said to be in stable condition.
Crews who arrived to the complex in the River Park neighborhood saw windows blown out but no fire.
