One person was detained Sunday after three people died in a house fire in Temple City.
Two others were hospitalized, fire officials confirmed.
Firefighters with the Los Angeles County Fire Department were sent to the home in the 6000 block of Sultana Avenue at around 4:50 p.m. and were able to knock down the fire in 30 minutes.
But due to a “heavy heat” from the flames, three people died, the department said.
“Unfortunately they arrived to heavy smoke and fire showing from the front of the building,” Fred Fielding with the LA County Fire Department said. “Immediately we went into rescue mode but we were unable to save those three.”
