LOS ANGELES— At least five people have been killed in wildfires rampaging around Los Angeles, officials said Wednesday, with firefighters overwhelmed by
DEADLY WILDFIRES. A Bank of America is fully engulfed in flames along Lake Ave. during the Eaton fire in the Altadena area of Los Angeles county, California on Thursday, Manila time. At least five people are now known to have died in wildfires raging around Los Angeles, with more deaths feared, law enforcement said as terrifying blazes leveled whole streets, torching cars and houses in minutes.
On Wednesday evening, a new fire erupted in the Hollywood Hills, just a few hundred meters from the storied Hollywood Boulevard, sparking an evacuation order for the world’s entertainment capital. “We’re doing the very best we can. But no, we don’t have enough fire personnel in LA County between all the departments to handle this,” he said.
A separate 10,600-acre fire was burning around Altadena, north of the city, where flames tore through suburban streets.
