Two civilians and a firefighter were injured Sunday night in
a Boyle Heights apartment fire, a Los Angeles Fire Department official said.
It took 75 firefighters more than half an hour to
knock down the blaze in a two-story apartment in the 500 block of North Cummings
Street.
One civilian suffered moderate burns, while another was in
serious condition after suffering respiratory difficulties, said Los Angeles Fire
Department spokesman Erik Scott. The injured firefighter was in moderate
condition with burns. All were taken to a hospital.
