Sirens cut through the late morning calm in Bel Air on Thursday as firefighters rushed to a hillside home after a structure fire was reported just after 10:15 a.m. Flames and smoke were seen pushing from the attic of a two-story single-family residence on Azzure Court, prompting crews to mount an aggressive interior attack to keep the blaze from spreading. Officials reported no injuries, and firefighters stayed on scene to chase lingering hotspots and ventilate the home. Multiple battalion and engine companies converged on the tight, winding streets of the neighborhood.
What the LAFD reported
According to LAFD, the blaze was logged as Incident #0630, with units from Battalion 10 and Fire Station 109 sent to the scene. The first-arriving companies reported a two-story home with fire and smoke showing from the attic and said they were operating in "offensive mode" as they worked to bring the fire under control. The update listed multiple engines and rescue ambulances among the responding resources. The department also noted there were no reported injuries at the time of the alert.
Where it happened
Emergency dispatch listed the incident address as 15510 W Azzure Ct, in a Bel Air pocket west of Mulholland Drive. The location is recorded in property listings as a two-story single-family home. According to Realtor.com, the lot size is roughly 15,400 square feet. The house sits on a short cul-de-sac off Casiano and Azzure Court, in a cluster of mostly single-family homes lining the narrow streets that snake through the Bel Air hills.
Station response and neighborhood safety
Fire Station 109, the closest LAFD station for much of Bel Air, is based on Mulholland Drive and was among the companies dispatched, according to LAFD's station listing. The department said the call was handled by the Valley Bureau under Battalion 10. Crews carried out an interior attack and then moved into overhaul, pulling apart portions of the structure as needed to search for any hidden hotspots.
Local context
This marks the second notable structure fire in Bel Air in early July. Crews knocked down a house fire on Roscomare Road last week, and that earlier response also showed Fire Station 109 among the units assigned to the area. While two incidents do not make a trend, hillside readiness remains a steady focus for firefighters, especially in neighborhoods where access can be tricky.
The cause of Thursday's attic fire has not yet been released. Investigators typically move in once suppression and overhaul operations are wrapped up, and officials said any new information will be shared through the department's official channels as it becomes available.
