KNOCKDOWN Greater Alarm Structure Fire 01/01/2024 INC#1506 - KNOCKDOWN Greater Alarm Structure Fire; INC#1506; 12:11AM; 6415 N Van Nuys Bl; ; #VanNuys; Over 100 firefighters battled flames for 2 hours and 39 minutes in a large one-story commercial building that housed three separate businesses, and was part of a row of other commercial buildings on Van Nuys Boulevard. The primary function of the businesses in the fire building was the storage/sale of textiles (which heavily fueled the fire), but a church also operated out of the rear of the building. Crews arrived to find smoke showing, but after making entry and ventilating the roof above, flames began shooting over 30 feet out of the building. Firefighters relocated their efforts to the exterior of the building for the remainder of the fire fight, using ladder pipes and other large hose streams to fight the fire from the outside. Eventually the roof collapsed, giving firefighters a more clear shot through the top, and successfully kept the fire from spreading to the adjacent businesses, which share a wall with the fire building. Thankfully, no one was inside and there were no reported injuries. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.; FS 39; Batt 10; Valley Bureau; Council District 6; AR1 BC10 BC12 BC14 BC17 BC4 CM40 CM42 E100 E227 E239 E260 E27 E287 E288 E289 E293 E39 E81 E88 E89 E90 EA1 EM17 HE1 HR3 RA100 RA102 RA39 RA60 RA827 RA839 SO1 SQ87 T27 T39 T60 T87 T88 T89 T93 UR27 UR88; CH8; 17 18; Nicholas Prange 01-01-24 12:50 AM
