Propane burner

A deep fryer unit was using a propane burner to heat oil.
Some distance downstream from the burner, the pipe supplying the propane was completely severed.
The burner now has no ongoing supply of propane and presumably a rapid loss of pressure.
Is there a reasonable scenario/s where the residual propane from the pipe upstream from the severance could still be flaming at the burner for a short time after the pipe was severed?
Thanks in advance for any thoughts...
