[UPDATE] 1900 hours | June 21 2026 Structure Fire 06/17/2026 INC#1019

[UPDATE] 1900 hours | June 21 2026 Structure Fire; INC#1019; 07:00PM; 1400 S Los Palos St; https://bit.ly/3YE3qNY; Boyle Heights; LAFD firefighters continue to make significant progress at the Palos Incident through coordinated suppression operations and heavy equipment support. Crews have removed sections of the exterior wall allowing for more effective access to interior fire areas, giving them the ability to apply large volumes of water. The building’s construction continues to present operational challenges. Interior storage rack systems remain in place and are supporting portions of the collapsed roof, creating complex and unstable conditions that require a cautious and methodical approach. Firefighters are operating with a strong emphasis on safety and are closely monitoring potential structural failure hazards. Fire conditions along the exterior portions of the structure have been largely knocked down. The next phase of operations will focus on accessing and extinguishing remaining fire within more interior areas of the building. Smoke conditions have improved significantly and are expected to continue improving as firefighters make progress extinguishing the fire. Although smoke conditions are trending in a positive direction, intermittent increases in smoke may occur as crews open walls and other concealed spaces to locate and extinguish hidden fire.; FS 25; Batt 1; Central Bureau; Council District 14; CH7; 14 18; Jamie Stewart

[UPDATE] June 21 2026 Structure Fire 06/17/2026 INC#1019

Update [UPDATE] June 21 2026 Structure Fire; INC#1019; 01:59PM; 1400 S Los Palos St; https://bit.ly/3YE3qNY; Boyle Heights; Throughout the evening and into the morning hours, LAFD firefighters have continued to work tirelessly to gain control of the Palos Incident. Crews have successfully confined the fire to one side of the large building. Overnight, firefighters removed portions of the exterior wall to improve access and allow for more effective water application to areas of the fire that were otherwise inaccessible. The building presents significant safety and operational challenges, including large storage racks that limit firefighters' ability to safely deploy handlines inside the structure. Many of the solar panels have been de-energized, and multiple lithium-ion batteries have been removed from the building, significantly reducing hazards to both firefighters and the surrounding community. LAFD personnel will continue firefighting operations throughout the day, applying large volumes of water to extinguish remaining fire. As a result, the volume and color of smoke visible to the community may fluctuate. ; FS 25; Batt 1; Central Bureau; Council District 14; CH7; 14 18; Jamie Stewart
