According to the Metro Cities Fire Authority, calls began coming in about a fire at a single-story commercial building at 1169 N. Knollwood Circle just before 11:30 a.m.
Authorities tell Eyewitness News a total of four people were injured, including two firefighters who suffered burn injuries due to an explosion that occurred.
They’re currently getting treated at UCI Medical Center in Orange and police say they’re expected to be OK.
Sgt. Steve Pena of the Anaheim Police Department said a suspect was severely injured during the process and rushed to an area hospital.
“It looks like they were doing some sort of honey extraction — making hash oil (and) doing a chemical process with marijuana,” said Pena.
He added that one suspect was detained, “and, so far, he’s cooperating with our investigation.”
Firefighters from the Orange County Fire Authority and the Orange and Fullerton fire departments were assisting in the effort.
The incident remains under investigation.
The location of the fire is about two miles east of the theme park. Video submitted to ABC7 by a visitor showed a large plume of smoke visible from the park.
