Encinitas McDonald's Fire that occurred on a september 11, 2011

ENCINITAS, Calif. - A ruptured gas line caused a McDonald's restaurant to burst into flames and its roof to collapse Thursday night in Encinitas, fire officials said. Eight people escaped unharmed from the two-alarm fire that engulfed the fast food restaurant at 1271 Encinitas Boulevard just after 8:30 p.m., according to Encinitas Fire Department. Firefighting crews from Carlsbad, Solana Beach, and Encinitas were able to stop the flames from spreading to nearby stores, although one shop reported smoke damage. Witnesses said they heard an explosion come from the McDonald's, then saw thick smoke. It took crews about an hour to put out the blaze. The restaurant was destroyed and the damage was estimated at about $700,000, officials said.

I am confused. Thumbs up if you have noticed that this video was uploaded on Sept 2, 2011. Yet, he claims that it happened on Sept 11, 2011. I think . . . trying to make the fire momentous by making it seem like it happened on the same day as the 9/11 attack?
