Fire ignites at warehouse in downtown Los Angeles
Firefighters in downtown Los Angeles battled a morning blaze at a fabric warehouse.
LOS ANGELES - A major emergency structure fire ignited inside a fabric warehouse in downtown Los Angeles early Tuesday morning, officials said.
It remains an emotional time for firefighters as Saturday night’s Toy District inferno that left 12 firefighters injured was heavy on crews’ minds.

The fire was declared a major emergency fire at 4:43 a.m. and a total of 112 firefighters were battling the fire, he said. A knockdown was called at 5:30 a.m.
No injuries were reported.
The name of the business was not immediately available.
The cause of the fire was under investigation.
