Los Angeles Fire Department was dispatched to the 800 block of south San Pedro Street for a reported structure fire. First arriving units found single story commercial building with fire showing through the roof. Firefighters took a defensive posture to battle the blaze. At least three units in a 150' by 100' one story of commercial businesses were involved. Dense interior storage made the fire very stubborn and difficult for firefighters to get a handle on the blaze. It took 117 firefighters an hour and 14 minutes to extinguish the bulk of the fire. Overhaul lasted well into the night and into the next morning as units from all over the city were called in for fire watch. The next morning had a situation where people were attempting to steal remnants of the the destroyed building and even equipment off the fire apparatus. LAPD was dispatched to handle that situation. No injuries were reported. The cause remains under investigation.
