Structure Fire 08/07/2024 INC#0875

Structure Fire; INC#0875; 06:20PM; 5014 S Avalon Bl; https://bit.ly/3LVDDJp; South Park; At 3:16pm LAFD arrived to find a 10' x 15' outbuilding and a few pallets of hand sanitizer with fire showing. Within a few minutes, firefighters extinguished the fire in the outbuilding. Hand sanitizer burns clean (with no smoke or danger of exposure) and it is safer to allow the materials to burn in a controlled manner. The incident commander arranged for sand (to contain any possible runoff) and Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) to be delivered on scene. AFFF is a fire suppressant used to extinguish flammable liquid fires. There are no structures threatened, no injuries reported and no threat to the area. It will be an extended duration operation with no pre-determined end time.

Protect your head and neck while taking cover under sturdy furniture or near a sturdy interior wall, away from windows and doorways until the shaking stops. After surveying your home and/or workplace for earthquake damage and assuring no injuries, please check on your pets and at-risk neighbors, especially seniors living alone; FS 4; Batt 1; Central Bureau; Council District 1; No Units Assigned; Margaret Stewart
