LAFD / 5/29/11 - It took Los Angeles Firefighters a little over an hour to control a spectacular blaze that spread from an outdoor type supply warehouse to two commercial buildings at 1171 East 10th Street in Downtown Los Angeles. Firefighters first on scene immediately went to heavy streams, setting up ladder pipes and wagon batteries due to the intense flames. The roaring fire spread to a one story brick building to the north and a second taller brick building, possibly two stories, to the east. Firefighters also were aware of overhead power lines running up alongside the street. One L.A. Firefighter injured his back and was transported to a local area hospital via Paramedics in stable condition. Damage was extensive, the cause of the 1:30 AM blaze is under investigation. An injured pit-bull dog could be seen in the area suffering from burns on its body, possibly a watch dog.
