An outside fire spread to multiple structures in Los Angeles’ Westlake neighborhood Saturday afternoon, injuring a firefighter and prompting a large response from the Los Angeles Fire Department.

The fire was reported at 12:58 p.m. near 525 S. Union Ave., according to LAFD. Flames from the outside fire extended into a two-story apartment building, a single-family home and a recreational vehicle, officials said.

Video from the scene showed towering flames and thick black smoke rising from an area filled with debris, with an RV and nearby structures immediately surrounding the fire.

One person was rescued from a structure and evaluated at the scene. An LAFD firefighter suffered minor injuries and was taken to a hospital.

Additional resources were called to the scene as crews worked to contain the flames. The fire was knocked down at 1:42 p.m., 44 minutes after the initial 911 call. About 60 firefighters remained at the scene afterward for overhaul operations.
