A small structure fire inside a two-story apartment building at 338 N. New Hampshire Avenue in East Hollywood was knocked down Sunday after a rapid response from Los Angeles firefighters. The Los Angeles Fire Department declared the incident "out" and reported no injuries, with Fire Station 6 among the units on scene.
What LAFD posted
According to LAFD, the department shared a scene map on its social feed and linked to incident details for responding crews. As detailed on LAFD's alerts page, the call is logged as "Structure Fire - Fire Out" at 12:31 p.m., describing a small contents fire in a second-floor unit that crews extinguished within about ten minutes. The alert states that the cause is unknown and that no civilians or firefighters were injured.
Neighborhood context
East Hollywood has seen several mid-size structure fires in recent weeks, including a vacant four-story blaze on Vermont Avenue in early April that took more than an hour to bring under control, according to the outlet. That earlier incident prompted an arson response and underscored how older, boarded properties can complicate firefighting operations.
What residents should know
Neighbors may still notice smoke, water runoff and cleanup activity in the immediate area, so it is best to avoid the block while crews finish overhaul and investigators work the scene. For emergencies, call 911 and follow official channels for updates, as authorities post maps and incident details through their alerts feed and social accounts.
We will monitor official updates and share new information if LAFD releases details about the cause, damage or displacement.
