PASADENA – A fire destroyed a house and damaged another house and an apartment building late Saturday, authorities said.
The blaze was first reported about 7 p.m. at a vacant two-story house in the 300 block of South Oakland Avenue, Pasadena Fire Department spokeswoman Lisa Derderian said. The home was undergoing renovations.
The initial firefighters to arrive at the burning craftsman-style home found it well-involved with fire and called for backup, Derderian said.
The fire spread to another nearby two-story house and an apartment building, she said. It was unclear how badly they were damaged, though 15 adults and one child were displaced.
Firefighters rescued a girl from one of the adjacent buildings, as well as a dog that had singed hair but was expected to be okay, Derderian said.
The cause of the fire remained under investigation Saturday night.
