Major Emergency Structure Fire; INC#1353; 07:03PM; 7764 W Hollywood Bl; https://bit.ly/3pCoi9m; #Hollywood; 126 LAFD Firefighters - joined by neighboring Los Angeles County Firefighters in Automatic Aid, engaged in a fierce 102 minute firefight (5:21 PM to 7:03 PM) to access, confine and extinguish this Major Emergency blaze. The fire was initially reported as a pair of vehicles burning in a apartment carport, which extended to involve two of three identical side-by-side apartment buildings, including the thirty-two unit, 18,900 square foot two-story centrally located apartment building of fire origin, where flames that had already extended to the large common attic on LAFD arrival, caused severe damage to that attic and sixteen apartment units on the second floor, including structural compromise and partial collapse. Flames from that building extended to stubbornly involve the attic of the identical adjoining apartment buildings to the *east*, which sustained severe attic damage. An additional three story apartment building *further east* at the southwest corner of Hollywood Boulevard and Genesee Avenue, sustained only smoke damage. The woman with mobility challenges who had been trapped by smoke and flames on the second floor of the apartment building of fire origin, was rescued by first arriving LAFD Firefighters. She was initially described as being in fair condition after sustaining smoke exposure, and is now being treated at an area hospital. One LAFD Firefighter sustained a hand laceration during fire attack. After being treated at scene, he returned to the firefight. No other injuries have been reported. The cause of the fire is under active investigation.
