Update Structure Fire; INC#0707; 02:00PM; 18227 W Elkwood St; https://bit.ly/2LuHJgf; Reseda; The fire appeared to have started in ornamental vegetation near Strathern St, then was fueled by wind several blocks to the south across Blythe, Arminta, Elkwood and Ingomar. A post-fire survey has revealed that two homes sustained minor fire damage, and four out buildings were damaged or destroyed. LAFD Firefighters were on scene just three minutes after being dispatched and acted quickly to prevent this situation from becoming much worse in the warm/windy conditions. Please remember to review #ReadySetGo and be very cautious with sources of ignition, as this January weather of 87 degrees F, 10% humidity, and wind up to 35 mph is dangerous and unforgiving.
