Domino's restaurant in Utah explodes after SUV crashes into building

Two people involved in a car accident in Herriman, Utah, were rescued minutes before their SUV was engulfed in flames after it crashed into a Domino's Pizza, ruptured a gas line and caused an explosion.

A video posted to social media by Unified Fire Authority, Utah's largest fire agency, showed firefighters working to put out the blaze at a commercial building on Saturday night when an explosion is heard and debris is seen flying in the air. Shortly before the explosion, "two courageous bystanders risked their lives" to rescue the driver and one passenger from the vehicle, fire officials said in a Facebook post.

Saturday night a devastating 3-car accident sent one vehicle off the roadway and into a building, rupturing a gas line and igniting a massive fire. Two courageous bystanders risked their lives to rescue the driver and passenger from the burning vehicle just moments before it was engulfed in flames. As fire crews began suppression efforts, a powerful explosion destroyed one business and caused significant damage to two others. Over 60 firefighters from Unified Fire Authority, South Jordan, West Jordan, West Valley City, Sandy, and Draper worked together to battle the intense blaze. Three individuals were transported to local hospitals. Thankfully, no firefighters or law enforcement officers were injured during the incident. We are grateful for the bravery of the bystanders and the swift, unified response from all emergency personnel. #UFA #FireResponse #FirstResponders #CommunityHeroes #UnifiedFireAuthority #MultiAgencyResponse #BreakingNews #UtahFire
