ESPARTO, Calif. — In Northern California, authorities have located the bodies of all seven people previously unaccounted for after a catastrophic fireworks explosion last week. This tragedy generated a wildfire and significantly impacted the quiet agricultural town.

The fireworks ignited on Tuesday, unleashing a substantial blaze that triggered additional spot fires and caused the structure in Yolo County—about 40 miles northwest of Sacramento—to collapse.

Officials confirmed that they have recovered all human remains from the incinerated site, but the identities will not be released until the families have been notified, as per the county's statement on Sunday.

"Crews are actively working to manage any remaining explosive hazards," the statement detailed. The investigation into what caused the blast continues.

Following the explosion in the community of Esparto, two individuals required medical attention for their injuries, according to local authorities.

The warehouse operated under the name Devastating Pyrotechnics. Known for over three decades in crafting and executing fireworks displays, the company’s website was taken down after the incident.

"Our thoughts and deepest sympathies are with the victims, their loved ones, and all those affected in our community," said the company's statement last week. "We remain determined to support those directly impacted by this disaster and will work closely with officials on the ongoing investigation."

The resulting fire, fueled by the explosion, expanded to nearly 80 acres and burned adjacent farmlands, according to reports.
