An explosion occurred at the California courthouse in Santa Maria, where Michael Jackson was tried and acquitted 20 years ago. Residents were advised to avoid the area as it was deemed unsafe by authorities. Jackson, who passed away in 2009, was accused of sexually abusing a child at his Neverland Ranch, but was acquitted of all charges in the 2005 trial held in Santa Maria. This is an ongoing situation and updates are expected.
