- 09.16.20 | 1:00 AM | EAST LOS ANGELES (CNS) - A fire heavily damaged a five-story affordable housing complex under construction in East Los Angeles Wednesday, along with a historic theater building and a house, and a "person of interest" was detained in connection with the investigation.
About 150 firefighters responded to the area of Rowan Avenue and First Street at about 1 a.m. and encountered heavy fire coming from the 62-unit complex, according to the Los Angeles County Fire Department.
The building, which was called "Nuevo Amanecer" and had been under construction for 18 months, was going to house low-income veterans and families, according to Manuel Bernal, president of East LA Community Corporation, a nonprofit group that planned and managed it. It was scheduled to be complete by the end of the year.
The fire, which forced the evacuation of nearby residents, also damaged a historic pre-1933 theater building and a single-story house, but no injuries were reported.
"Not only does this tragedy profoundly affect our timeline to provide quality housing to veterans and families, but the families living next door were also impacted by the fire and local workers have lost their construction jobs," Bernal said in a statement. "No one was injured, but Nuevo Amanecer was a valuable economic resource in East LA and we are overcome with grief for the loss of our neighbors' homes and livelihoods. We are currently looking into ways to support the families as we recover together."
A teenage boy was detained for questioning as a "person of interest" in connection with the fire investigation, according to the county fire department.
"We are cooperating with the local authorities and the Red Cross, and have sadly been informed by the sheriff's department that an arson suspect is in custody," Bernal said.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department's East Los Angeles Station could not confirm if the person of interest or any other suspects had been arrested.
The blaze was largely extinguished by daybreak, but firefighters were still sifting through rubble hours later to determine if there were any smoldering embers. An official knockdown time was listed as 9:31 a.m. A drone was deployed to help firefighters inspect the site.
East LA Community Corporation says it will work to rebuild Nuevo Amanecer

Firfighter's don't have enough to deal with right now? !! They sure dont need this
And here most the fire fighters went up nth n west to help there!!!!!
God bless the fire fighters. Pray for their safety
If this teenager is found guilty of this crime he owes an enormous, enormous debt to society to do something so stupid, so costly and especially to people truly in need of help from others. This is an inexcusable act that heavy, heavy consequences need to be assessed to the offender. Basically an unconscionable act. Unacceptable in a modern society.
He was hired help so the investors can get the insurance $, they’ve done the same thing just a week or 2 earlier same type of building in the same area and it seems to fishy to be a coincidence
Yes indeed, however this stupid and rainbow colored environment the leftist liberals call normal will be
the down fall of our society. It sux, but it is the way we are going.
This is more than "heavily damaged." It's destroyed.
Arson. One of the most disgusting, cowardly, and dangerous crimes.
Even worse, the victim property gets punished again. Their property insurance is now null and void. It's common for insurance companies to get cold feet when arson is suspected.
ANTIFA AND B.L.M GANGSTERS
That's who did IT
I can't help but wonder if this affodable housing project couldn't have been constructed of more fireproof material? Imagine if people were living in it.
when you get to close up on any big build you have heaters curing mudding and drywall.. that's the time to have walk around inside inspection all night. before doors and windows are in fire danger is minimal. also contractors leave flammable material and heaters on. we lose apts. and condos very high end from this lack of oversight. it has "de nada" to do with "affordable housing'.
When society becomes more animal than human, this happens.
Animals do not pollute or start fires
Brones Jendles, yeah, it’s some kind of hawk. It drops burning twigs onto the grass and then feasts on the fleeing insects and lizards. One smart bird.
These poor firefighters! They are probably so exhausted! That is just enough!
Pray pray pray for theses firefighters 🙏🏻
fran Obrien please keep all firemen and women safe, bless them all.
@@susancarden749 My thoughts exactly. Lord please protect and keep all firefighters in Jesus name I pray in accordance with Thine wishes. Amen Not disrespecting you and you comment just adding my own convictions regarding my faith. Knowing the dangers they are facing as a retired Volly Firefighter all good wishes for those who risk their lives to keep others safe and who respond to dire emergencies all the time are always appreciated.
wow never seen a fire tear through a 5 story building that fast and thank you for bringing us this video
What a shame the negative impact on so many lives.
It seems like the whole block is going up in flames.
Oh wow thanks again for sharing
There were so many fire in East LA yesterday!
Yes. Made me very happy to see.
@@BobFeiring why would you say that !
Robert Feiring wtf is wrong with you?
@@BobFeiring Its a taxpayer money burning, therefore partially my money , probably yours as well ... what exactly makes you so happy?
@@alexandercollins7530 lol. The state wastes billions and billions on failed project after failed project and you worry about small change like this? Nothing makes me happier than to see the racist city of LA burn. I live in Argentina. Expat from komifornia. Burn baby burn.
I live almost four blocks away from here, I can't believe this happened. :(
I see the arsons are having a blast out west
Hey that fire is huge I hope the firefighters stay safe! 🙏
Dam climate change struck again!!!
Incredibly brave firemen
I live in East LA and they are building 5 like these around the area. Some are still under construction like this one on Rowand and 3rd Street (East LA). The other one still under construction in Marengo and Soto st. (Boyle Heights)
When buildings like this get to close up I'd suggest 24 hour walk around security. As heaters are on for drying drywall and mudding before painting, your fire danger ramps up huge once the windows and doors are installed. WE lose apts. like this all the time, and it is always "near completion". The cost to have night monitoring is pennies compared to what the community loses.
Heartbreaking on many levels.
Stay safe out there....this is so sad
Obviously done on purpose honestly how can lives or buildings meant for good can be protected all the time except cameras are the only solutions left.
Great footage you guys !!
A fire in LA .... how strange 🙈🙉🙊
How long does it take to set up a ladder pipe about an hour
Hopefully everyone will be safe out there and. I was a volunteer fireman for St.helens Oregon for seventeen years and I been on big fires but not that big. The biggest fire I been on is a big grass fire they sent us to over in eastern Oregon.
Great footage, & video 👍 👍
Hope no one injured..stay safe..🙏🙏🙏
Very sad, but I would be concerned living there seeing how quickly the fire spread.
If the Sana Ana winds are blowing it's always a danger if one house gets on fire it could take out two of three blocks of homes before putting out.
Construction sites spread fires faster because of exposed wood, lots of combustibIes Iying around, Iots of oxygen passing through and no fire sprinkIers instaIIed yet.
Hell on earth. World wide. Get ready for starving people. That’s next.
Terrifying.
jay adams God is the only one that know the time and day. It will come. I will wait for god sign not man.
BC Bob lol
Humans love meat so much they will start eating each other when the shit hits the fan
There must be some mistake about the ‘person of interest’. The report says that the person was a juvenile and also that this was an early morning fire. School is back in session now and juveniles are supposed to be at home in bed - well past their bedtimes.
I really believe that in fires like that , we should try to to choke the fire, rather than try to put it out with water.
Why is the West Coast so opposed to tower ladders? Tradition I'm guessing.
TLs offer so much maneuverability for making rescues and directing master streams. RMAs and TDAs can't be safely moved with someone on the stick.
Awesome footage
Soon the entire west coast will be aflame. Cheap affordable land. A new start.
IMO multi floor buildings should not be built with wood! Should be concrete and steel. They just built a 5 floor seniors residence in my town using lumber. Crazy!
Ami Riegel . Lol. Yes, you may be right . Us old ones are a burden on society 🙁
Ho Dios, ten misericordia de nuestros Hermanos, los Americanos y todas las personas que se encuentran en riesgo.Ten piedad Señor
Son asesinos de toda la vida Dios devuelve lo que sembraron cazaban a gente de raza negra de África los tenían de esclavos y la gente de medio Oriente niños familias enteras que han matado para quedarse con el petróleo acaso se creen mejores y americanos somos todos los que vivimos en este continente yo soy de Argentina soy americana
@@anamariaabud2473 asi es, somos del continente Americano. Norte, Sur, o Centro.
And also the police who watches for everyone’s safety
They love their wooden buildings................. until fire comes knocking.
Where exactly is this. Family in LA Thanks. So tired of this... think this is all chemical then lit.. anyone else feel the same. No possible way fires can just start all over. Chemical warfare ?
It’s caIIed arson. UsefuI idiots of the Ieftwing setting fires to wage war against ordered society. This is how aII communist insurections go.
rockstarofredondo arson yea but it’s not political, get ur head out of ur ass, this was hired help so the investors could get the insurance $
Qué tristeza al ver tantas pérdidas. Dios da fortaleza a todo ésto, con el corazón en la mano te pido pares 🙏 creo que todos nosotros los que tenemos conciencia ya entendimos el dolor por lo que todos lo que ser vivo está pasando, fuerzas para todas las personas que están al pendiente de todos ustedes, muchas, muchas bendiciones.
ANOTHER GENDER REVEAL ... INDOORS.
Please stay safe... God be with you all... Amen
This is one reason. I changed my mind about moving to California. It's like hell on earth! Praying for the firefighters!
Philadelphia is any better; but the Suburbs are fine.
Will it collapse?
OMG MY COUSIN LIVES IN LA I HOPE SHES SAFE
You know LA is larger than 1 square block, right?
Mister Mylo yes
But she live right next to we’re it was burning and she won’t answers my calls or text and I hope she ok and I am going to La on Sunday I miss her I hope she’s ok
Enorme incendio, complimenti ai pompieri grande lavoro di spegnimento. Ciao
And security gurds ??? Seen them when i would pass by when under construction.....
🙏🙏🙏
Gods mad y'all
@BC Bob we'll start believing . Because what's going on in the world is a wake up call. Soon Jesus is gonna take his people with him to heaven.
God is a teen arsonist?
Pray for everyone's safety and for the people who will be affected long term because of destruction of their future home.
Any casualties?
Onde e isso
Los Angeles
I need to see more in LA. Amen.
Jesus is caming very soon
Amen time for people to repent and accept him as a savior
Ain't nobodys race gonna get themselves into heaven
Wtf does caming mean? Yeah sounds convincing.
Amen
a terribly destructive fire, and all the worse to think that it might have been set deliberately.
That definitely looking like this one was started with accelerants
What are the cross streets
The Cross Street or do you mean cross Road one ☝️ leads to Heaven and the other one is Hell J Star 💫
That building looks like a death trap for firefighters
Birds live in those trees ...
@Keith Allen i know it's devastatingly sad, many birds were found huddled in corners crevices of mountains dead from cold and starvation. Some people think climate change. personally I don't know what to think. It's scary
@jaycee _ not funny sir
What a sad situation with this fire. I hope they catch the arsonist, if they haven't already done so, and prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law. Great job by firefighters. The video coverage was very well done. I almost could smell the smoke and feel the heat. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe.
Our heroes
Its odd they keep fighting a fire they know they cant put out. We're I've seen a 2 story house on fire and the fire dept just stops trying.
Why don't they just bring about 10 helicopters to turn the fire of but since we're in the varrio they be like "fuckIt" let it burn
Afforable housing ? What is that?
About $2,000 a month for 400 square feet.
Somebody else pays for your rent.
Prayers to all . firefighters FAMILES.let GOD BE WITH YOU ALL
The KKK just changed it's initials, same mindset!
@BC Bob To: BLM - Black Left Marxists-The Democratic Party:
1) Defended SLAVERY
2) Started THE CIVIL WAR, because the 1st Republican, (Lincoln), was elected to office
3) Democrat John Wilkes Booth MURDERED Republican POTUS Abraham Lincoln after Lincoln had freed the black slaves
4) Opposed RECONSTRUCTION
5) Founded THE KU KLUX KLAN
6) Imposed SEGREGATION
7) Perpetrated LYNCHINGS (on freed black slaves and white Republicans)
8) Fought THE CIVIL RIGHTS ACT
9) OPPOSED: the 13th amendment in `1865 to abolish slavery, the 14th amendment in `1866 to grant citizenship to blacks, the 15th amendment in `1869 to grant blacks the right to vote. (ALL these amendments passed because of the universal Republican support.)
Yep!
Look up what MaIcomX said about them...
@@rockstarofredondo Yes, he called Blacks "Political Chumps" and "Traitors" if they voted Democrat.
Keepsafe 🙏💕
I need to know there are a lot of fire fighters who get sick from all that smoke why don't they wear a face mask. my heart hurt for them.i need to know.
Embers just flying everywhere. Any buildings catch fire from the embers?
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Oh no the Theatre! Which one was it? I hope it wasnt The Regent.
God bless all fire fighters...
See that just sucks... I mean that was going to house our veterans(Heros) and families..why do people have to mess with helping them?I feel so sry for them and the workers .God bless our Heros
🥺🥺🥺 hijoles 😔😔😔 stay safe everyone
Fix title so it says low income housing construction instead of just "building"
Recovering Soul We can speculate on motive here but home owners hate low income housing. It causes crowding and lowers property values in the neighborhood if they live there. Really sad how selfish and greedy people are but that’s reality.
A shame to loose the old theater from 1930s
how come it not have sprinker s fitted
You would need every fire truck in LA pumping at the same time to put that out, however it was lit up it's going to good to put out easily.
Boggles mind that LA only has straight sticks and no platforms
Affordable housing aka government subsidized - NIMBY Fire
Now that’s a BBQ be safe🚒🚒🚒🚒🚒🚒🚒
2:35 firefighter slips and rolls ankle. Feel bad for him!
I can see this fire department doesn't know what a three alarm fire is this fire is a 12 alarm fire
FIRE BOMBEROS CALIFORNIA 🇺🇸FRIENDS BENDICIONES.... QUE DIOS LOS BENDIGA
Amén
God, please stop the fire, 😭😭😭😭
This building is a goner for sure.
😔😥😥😢
They sure need harsh punishment for criminals. Oh wait this is America where criminals have more rights than non criminals. Hope no firefighters was hurt.
There are very harsh penalties for arsonists. But nice try spreading disinformation.
why do they build so many things with flammable materials?
Earthquake reguIation prevents brick and stone buiIds.
In about 1 or 2 years construction will start on a Hi-rise apartment building and shopping complex. If they can't buy it or swindle you out of it, they'll burn it.
Oh hell, it was under construction hi-rise apartment complex.
I've commented before in another video, this fires are not natural
Phil DC AMEN. CHEMICAL WAREFARE.
bro thats 2 blocks away from me
Thank you arsonist for helping out people who need affordable housing.
DIOS bendito esto no es normal
Bring the marshmellows..!
Whoever did this will pay ...God is watching
BC Bob what are u talking about ? If ur talking about God shame on you but if ur not well sorry...
There comes a point where that building it just not salvageable, why keep putting water on it?
Ive worked with multiple firefighters at my jobs, they all told me the same thing. Radiant heat can set the buildings next to it on fire.
Repent and Confess your sins and come to Lord's feet, we are in end days, wash your hearts with the precious blood of Lord Jesus Christ...there is no much time, He is the only way...Lord Jesus Christ is coming very soon.
then what will he do? Pray for his kingdom..
We are in 'The Time of Sorrows'! We are coming to the end of the 6th Millennium, which should be in `2033; which is 2,000 years after Christ was crucified and arose! He should appear in the clouds, on His Throne for 3 1/2 years sometime in `2026, after a 7 year peace treaty is signed. That is when the 7 year Tribulation will begin. Christ will go out on his white horse to make war and to conquer the non-believing nations. He is right around the corner! Blessings in Yeshua's name! Now I did not say a day or an hour...just the year, and that, is from taking a lesson from the fig tree!
@Chief Blacksheep Right, the end of days is not for another 1,013 years. But the 7 year Tribulation will start right after a 7 year peace treaty is signed between Israel, Egypt and Syria! Sometime In `2026.Then; the Days are numbered and you can count them down. For 3 1/2 years after the signing, the Christians will leave this earth at the 6th and 7th trumpets being blown!
From now until then; you will see things take place that the world has never, ever seen before. Men's hearts will fail them from fear of what is to come next! Forget good times, they are over! It will just get worse and worse from here on out! Get ready!
Togwotee: (Crow word) "From here you can go anywhere!"
@BC Bob Not here to sell you anything, just wondering...what do you think is going to happen to YOU when your body of flesh takes it's last breath and YOUR Spirit, which is YOU, realizes that it is no longer breathing and you no longer feel any need to breath and YOU leave your dead body???
I CAN promise you that WILL happen...because it happened to me.
So what is your guess?
RICKY RICHARDS God is going to go kiIIing peopIe for “not beIieving”? Sounds pretty narcissistic and psychopathic.
