Fort Lauderdale, FL – On the morning of May 24, 2025, a devastating gas explosion at a strip mall in Florida City left multiple people injured and several businesses destroyed, prompting an ongoing investigation into the cause of the blast.
 
Surveillance footage from inside a local smoke shop captured the moment a powerful explosion rocked the plaza near the 900 block of W. Palm Drive. The blast is believed to have occurred during the ignition of propane appliances inside a restaurant. According to reports, at least ten individuals were injured, including two who were airlifted to nearby trauma centers.
 
While emergency responders continue to assess the damage and the fire marshal investigates what triggered the explosion, concerns have surfaced over whether proper safety procedures were followed by the companies responsible for the gas delivery and system activation. One of the parties involved is reported to be an unlicensed subcontractor, raising further questions about oversight and liability.
