July 30, 2009 A house on Kinney Circle in Glassell Park caught fire. The owner had just pulled into his carport when the engine of his old Cadillac caught fire. He was not able to reverse the car and that is what started the fire.
Neighbors called the LAFD and units from multiple stations responded. The fire was out in about 15 minutes. The house owner and his pets are OK and the neighboring properties were not damaged.
I am glad the damage to Mike's house looks minimal. There are times when both roads to his home have been blocked by lame construction crews and if his house would have caught fire during those times it would have probably been a total loss. LAFD looks like they put this one out fast.
