Death Toll in Eaton Fire Rises

A growing body of evidence is emerging that suggests the fire started in the dry grasses below a set of transmission towers carrying high-energy power lines.

 

The lines were buffeted that evening by winds that at times reached

100 miles per hour. “

 

-The New York Times

Official reports indicate that 18 people are confirmed dead from the Eaton Fire. Our deepest condolences go out to bereaved family members who lost a loved one.

 

Los Angeles residents are coming forward to hold SCE accountable following strong evidence that the company’s equipment potentially sparked the Eaton wildfire that has destroyed or damaged an estimated 10,491 structures.
