Technical Rescue; INC#1213; 05:29PM; 20640 W Valerio St; https://bit.ly/46dAbC3; #Winnetka; Firefighters responded for an adult male who appears to have fallen (or jumped?) from a bridge, into the flood control channel at least 15 feet below. Firefighters took a rigid stretcher (called a litter basket) and secured the conscious patient. To get the patient up to street level, firefighters used ropes/lashing and a ladder, in a rescue maneuver called a "moving ladder slide," where the litter basket is fastened to the ladder and then the ladder (with patient) is passed along a line of firefighters to overcome challenging terrain. The patient was safely brought back up to street level and transported to a local trauma center in serious condition. Nothing further. ; FS 72; Batt 17; Valley Bureau; Council District 3; BC17 E104 E273 E72 E73 EM15 HR3 RA104 RA72 T73 UR88; CH8; 17; Nicholas Prange

Update Greater Alarm Structure Fire; INC#1130; 05:20PM; 4163 S Broadway St; https://bit.ly/3Zae6Cd; #HistoricSouthCentral; As a result of visible structural compromise that could lead to collapse of the vacant 150' x 150' two-story commercial building that was on fire earlier today (also the scene of previous fires), the LAFD has summoned the American Red Cross to assist with temporary accommodations for the nine (9) adults, one (1) infant and five (5) pets who reside at a residential fourplex just west of the fire building. Though the residential fourplex did not sustain any direct fire damage, it is within the calculated collapse zone of the fire building, should it fail. The City of Los Angeles Department of Building & Safety has again Red-Tagged the fire building as unfit for entry. The fire's cause remains under active investigation.; FS 46; Batt 13; South Bureau; Council District 9; AR1 BC13 CM20 CM22 DT1 E14 E15 E211 E215 E221 E233 E29 E33 E46 E5 EA1 EM11 HE1 JT1 RA15 RA246 RA815 SO1 SQ21 T11 T15 T21 T33 TP1 UA1 UR5 UR88; CH7; 12; Brian Humphrey
