SANTA ANA, Calif.—Firefighters from multiple departments worked over an hour to put out a three-alarm blaze in a commercial building in Santa Ana and protect other structures in the industrial area, authorities said March 27.
The fire broke out around 8 p.m. Sunday at the building in the 2200 block of South Susan Street, Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) Capt. Sean Doran told City News Service.
Flames were showing through the roof when firefighters arrived, Doran said. Electric wires were down and firefighters “mitigated” the situation until Edison workers arrived.
