Update Structure Fire KNOCKDOWN 11/02/2019 INC#1532

Update KNOCKDOWN Structure Fire; INC#1532; 10:28PM; 831 S Westlake Av; http://bit.ly/2J5BkUE; Westlake; Firefighters arrived to find a two-story living space (structure) in the rear of a multi-family residence, with fire through the roof. LAFD employed defensive tactics at first, drowning the fire from the outside. By the time the flames were knocked back enough to enter the structure, the integrity of the roof and second floor were in question, making this a more extended operation to finish off the flames above the ground floor. 53 firefighters extinguished the fire in 47 minutes and will remain on scene for an extended overhaul of the structure. LAFD protected all surrounding structures from the heat and flames. No reported injuries.

Structure Fire KNOCKDOWN 11/02/2019 INC#0146

Structure Fire KNOCKDOWN; INC#0146; 02:33AM; 710 S Broadway St; http://bit.ly/36BasFQ; Downtown; 36 firefighters were given an inexact location of a fire that stayed concealed while they searched multiple floors of multiple buildings before getting eyes on the problem on the 6th floor of an apartment building (built in 1909). Once the firefighters found the heat source, they quickly "drop bagged" a hose line (pulled the hose up from the ground up through a balcony/fire escape with a rope), and extinguished a small amount of fire (beams/joists appeared to be smoldering for several hours). There was evidence of construction in the area, but the definite cause of the fire remains unknown. No reported injuries; FS 9; Batt 1; Central Bureau; Council District 14; BC13 BC701 E10 E3 E9 RA209 RA809 SQ21 T10 T9; CH7; 15; -Nicholas Prange
