Firefighters from several fire stations in Littlerock and Palmdale were alerted to a fast moving fire in a single family dwelling at 9429 Ave S at approximately 01:45 am. Upon arrival firefighters found heavy smoke and fire inside the structure extending into the attic space. Firefighters quickly forced their way into the structure to search for trapped occupants while trying to extinguish the fire. It took units approximately 20 minutes to control the blaze and at least an hour to salvage the owners contents. Firefighters estimate that the loss to structure and contents is approximately $75,000.00.
The cause of the fire is under investigation by Los Angeles County Sheriff and Fire Department personnel.
