Altadena man tries to save home amid massive Eaton Fire

[@undefeatedaj]

Many seniors on fixed income with paid off mortgages do not have homeowners insurance. I can see why he’s trying to make sure his house won’t catch on fire.

[@diegoflores9237]

Many homes have been dropped by insurance recently in California

[@undefeatedaj]

@ that too, which should be a crime. Insurance companies are scammers. Pay all this money and not there when you need them.

[@lg9052]

You can see the desperation in that poor man 😢

[@jl5034]

This is also a lower middle income area😢

[@lindabergman3127]

Yes it’s unbelievable seeing some awful comments ppls make about these horrible fires! Nobody deserves this😭

Altadena is one of the loveliest communities in the county. Godspeed to its residences, and to that gentleman trying to save his home.

Call FEMA and your local government they'll help😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@vaskylark]

Telling people to stop trying to save their homes and in the same breath telling them that no fire trucks are coming? Why would they stop? Why should they stop if they are on their own?

[@georgewashington3555]

Everybdoy has the right to protect their home and try to save it. there is no Guarantee at all.. any firefighters are coming to save his home. This man should use any and all resources to save his home.

That poor man! How horrible to loose car keys in the midst of this disaster . My husband had a severe accident 20 years ago. He was Medivaced to a Trauma Center 50 miles away. We were in an unfamiliar rural area, - and I couldn't find my car keys. The Emergency Team had left and I was panicked beyond belief. It's so easy to misplace a critical item when under stress. I'm so sorry for that man

[@cameronspence4977]

You need to always keep them in the same place it will really cut down on incidents like this. I have seen people who lose their keys multiple times a week

[@thenathanielhardyproject8675]

I understand this man and I hope that he saves his home 🏡 and uses all the water 💦 he needs to save his home. His home 🏡 is probably paid off and he probably has no insurance. My neighbors home burned to the ground in November 2020 in Douglasville, Georgia. I was hosing the sparks that were flying on my roof and side of the house (which damaged the siding on my house) also with a hose as the firefighters stood by and watched me and did nothing. I asked are you going to spray my home 🏡 and they said we are waiting for the homeowner to get his dog 🐕 that was charging at the firefighters. They just told us to evacuate. They never helped me. I was lucky 🍀 that my house did not catch fire 🔥🔥 People post stupid responses here and I will tell you this, if your home ever catches on fire 🔥 you don’t know how you will react!!! 😡

[@cchan11cc]

I would stay and save my home. Don't ever give up.

[@tonyakeldsen1782]

If nobody else is coming in to put water on my home and I am staying behind trying to SAVE MINE believe me I am using that resource! I am NOT going to use MY WATER so that they can use it somewhere else . That is absurd. I am in shock that there is no water in so many of these hydrants . And who is held responsible ? Who catches the blame ? Nothing can bring back what is lost but someone needs to hold accountable to make these individuals whole again since so many insurance companies have dropped people

[@susanlovesjava4961]

Water systems aren't designed to fight fires in dozens of places at the same time.

People need to stay if possible and try and save their houses! You can usually save them just with a hose and a water pump. Most people have pools so you can do a whole lot ti stop the embers from Igniting your house and garden. I know it's not always possible but you gotta fight!

When they rebuild, the homes need to be built with sprinklers, fed by local reservoirs like swimming pools. A good way to encourage this would be a discount on insurance if you have a sprinkled home.
