1100 buildings destroyed, 70 thousand ordered to vacate their homes
The fire is spreading from the forests to residential areas due to strong winds. The situation is that the fire that started in an area of 10 acres spread to about 2900 acres within a few hours. Due to this, a state of emergency has been declared in Los Angeles. People are running away from their homes. About 1100 buildings have been completely gutted by the fire and 28 thousand houses have been damaged. At the same time, officials have ordered to evacuate the houses of about 70 thousand people. According to AP report, the houses of many Hollywood celebrities were also burnt to ashes in this fire. These celebrities include Billy Crystal, Mandy Moore, Jamie Lee Curtis and Paris Hilton.
Is the forest fire started intentionally?
Investigators are trying to determine the possible sources of the fire. Lightning has been a common cause of wildfires in America. But officials have dismissed that as no reports of lightning in the Palisades area or the area around the Eaton fire. The Eaton Fire started in Los Angeles County and destroyed hundreds of homes. Investigators are left with two other common causes, including deliberate arson and a fire sparked by utility lines. There is no official indication that arson is a cause of the massive wildfires in the Los Angeles area. Additionally, utility lines have not emerged as a cause. Investigators determined that the 2017 Thomas Fire, one of the largest in state history, was caused by Southern California Edison power lines that came into contact during high winds.
