Massive Fire in Los Angeles Believed to Have Started in Nearby Homeless Encampment (VIDEO)
There was a massive fire in Los Angeles this weekend that displaced dozens of people.
It is believed that the fire started in a nearby homeless encampment, then spread to a building under construction and finally to an adjacent apartment building. While no one was killed, the residents of the apartment building have had their lives turned upside down.
This is a familiar story. Homeless encampments and dangerous fires seem to go hand in hand. We have seen this happen in Los Angeles, Seattle and other cities with large homeless populations.
