No injuries were reported, firefighters said.<br /><br />Authorities are now working to determine what led to the explosion, which occurred shortly before 6 p.m. at 2720 E. Olympic Blvd.<br /><br />It may have been caused by a propane tank that was being hauled on the back of the truck, according to Los Angeles Police Department Officer Drake Madison.<br /><br />The L.A. Fire Department previously described the truck as a "semi trailer truck" and initially said it collided into a nearby gas station, then later determined that wasn't the case.<br /><br />After the blast, the truck's driver parked it near the gas station, then he and the passenger exited to safety, fire officials said.<br /><br />LAPD was interviewing the truck's two occupants, both males. No arrests were made, according to Madison.<br /><br />The men recycle scrap metal and had a load on the truck at the time, LAFD Battalion Chief Gregg Avery said.<br /><br />Avery added that he didn't "know anything about a propane tank."<br /><br />-~-~~-~~~-~~-~-<br />Please watch: "Surveillance video shows San Francisco man discussing plans for attacks on California " <br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VnpLV_P95_s<br />-~-~~-~~~-~~-~-
