It took 35 Firefighters just 18 minute to fully extinguish flames, confining them to the apartment of fire origin. The rescued male, whose subsequent agitated behavior hampered LAFD firefighting efforts, sustained only minor (unspecified) injury. Following a medical assessment by LAFD Paramedics, he was taken into the custody of LAPD (Harbor Division incident #3563) Officers at the scene. No other injuries were reported. The cause of the fire remains under active investigation; FS 48; Batt 6; South Bureau; Council District 15; Dispatched LAFD Units: BC13 BC4 BC6 CM22 CM722 E101 E112 E238 E248 E285 E36 E447 E49 EM9 RA112 RA36 RA848 T38 T48 T85; - Brian Humphrey
