“32 firefighters extinguished the fire in 35 minutes with no injuries reported. The fire extended (to what degree is being evaluated at this time) to the two adjacent businesses,” the LAFD said.

Due to the narrow streets and limited access, residents and the public were asked to avoid the area while LAFD crews put out the fire.

As reported by KTLA, the fire claimed the life of the dog of one of the building’s business owners.
