Couple Captures Potential Start of Eaton Fire in Los Angeles
Lawsuits filed Monday claim utility equipment sparked one of the two deadly wildfires burning in the Los Angeles area.
Multiple lawsuits against Southern California Edison claim the utility’s equipment sparked the deadly Eaton Fire burning near Pasadena. Edison has acknowledged fire agencies are investigating whether its equipment may have started a far smaller LA-area fire that broke out the same day.
The Eaton Fire destroyed at least 7,000 homes and other structures and laid waste to entire neighborhoods. Attorneys representing homeowners who lost their homes said Monday that it is their belief that Edison’s equipment caused it. Video taken during the fire’s early minutes shows a large blaze directly beneath electrical towers.
