[0:00] I'm wondering if Michelle can still hear
[0:01] me Michelle are you there yes Eric I can
[0:03] hear you we had a report that there was
[0:05] a fire near that area have you seen that
[0:08] anywhere yes as a matter of fact um I
[0:11] believe uh just a few minutes ago we
[0:12] showed the tape of that fire that fire
[0:15] is now out it was on a a street called
[0:18] Cadillac off of La Siena and it was a a
[0:21] house that caught on fire as a result of
[0:24] this quake and uh my understanding is
[0:27] that that fire is now out we cannot see
[0:29] it from in this location but we were
[0:31] just there to check it out Michelle
[0:32] we're looking at tape of it now yes um
[0:35] minor injuries to uh a couple that lived
[0:38] in that fire excuse me in that house um
[0:41] and it was solely to that one house my
[0:43] understanding is it did not spread to
[0:45] other houses in that area but that is
[0:47] now out however the house has been
[0:49] completely destroyed have you seen any
[0:51] other damage Michelle of uh uh a
[0:54] structural nature other than the portion
[0:56] of the collapsed freeway which you
[0:57] showed us a moment ago in this immediate
[0:59] vicinity right around this freeway this
[1:01] is really the extent of the damage that
[1:03] we have seen now of course Larry it's
[1:05] dark out we can't see a lot and I'm sure
[1:08] that we are going to be able to uh
[1:09] discover a lot more as soon as uh
[1:11] Daybreak uh happens now uh on our way
[1:15] here we saw some some damage from
[1:17] buildings and and places of business uh
[1:20] some windows broken things like that we
[1:24] hate to interrupt you but we're going to
[1:25] go now to sky cam 5 which is in the San
[1:27] Fernando Valley
