Investigation Underway After Massive Fire Erupts Inside Two-Story Office Supply Business on Sunday

The cause of the major blaze remains under investigation, according to LAFD.

The incident was deemed a Major Emergency response, with approximately 124 LAFD firefighters initially assigned to the firefighting effort. That number grew later in the incident as additional resources were requested, including arson investigators, the LAFD firefighter rehabilitation unit and the Emergency Air unit to support firefighter rehabilitation and to refill breathing-air bottles, LAFD Urban Search and Rescue unit, LAFD heavy equipment, excavators, and the LAFD Remote Suppression Unit, which is the department’s remote-controlled firefighting robot.

The fire produced a significant amount of smoke in the area, which lasted throughout most of the day on Sunday.

The fire caused a roof collapse onto the second floor, making parts of the building unsafe and inaccessible.

All firefighters were eventually evacuated from the structure due to heavy flames, thick smoke and poor conditions inside the building.

Upon arrival, firefighters found a large 100-by-100-foot commercial building with visible flames. The building was a two-story commercial occupancy with a mezzanine, doing business as an office supply company.

The fire was reported at 3:58 AM at 1225 South Hope Street, near Pico Boulevard. Firefighters were dispatched at 3:59 AM and the first unit arrived just over one minute later.

The Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) issued a press release regarding the massive building fire that erupted on S Hope Street on Sunday morning.

One firefighter was injured in the blaze, according to Eyewitness News. They were transported to the hospital, but their condition remains unclear.

Responders remain at the scene, where spot fires continue to smolder.

The Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) released the following statement: “LAFD companies are expected to continue overhaul operations through the remainder of the day. A heavy contents load of paper products which burned and continues to smolder within the structure will generate large amounts of smoke sporadically as LAFD separates and cools the piles. Residents are urged to avoid the area.”

Hope Street remains closed in the area as firefighters continue to operate, according to Eyewitness News.

Firefighters continue to douse any remaining hot spots as residual smoke rises from the scene.

The fire was officially extinguished at 5:52 a.m. It took approximately 124 LAFD firefighters to extinguished the flames, according to the LAFD spokesperson Jamie Stewart.

The video shows flames erupting through the roof, which has collapsed.

Two Citizen users video shows huge smoke emanating from the building and firefighters working to contain the fire.
