LITTLE SEOUL - A cloud of smoke enveloped the area of Little Seoul on the night of December 15th, 2020. At 22:23 on December 15th, 2020 the Los Santos Fire Department responded to 1068 Ginger Street for a reported structure fire. Quint-7 and RA-71 were dispatched to the call immediately. Incident Command was led by Firefighter II Leland Wilcox under the callsign Quint-7. Upon arrival, units declared an active fire coming from one of the rooms on the third floor. RA-71 was immediately assigned to attack the exterior, utilizing the aerial ladder and nozzle that Quint-7 is equipped with.

A 360 walk around was completed making sure that the fire was contained with no threat to nearby power lines and buildings. RE-3 made arrival five minutes after Quint-7 and RA-71, the units were tasked with doing a primary search of the building as well as an interior fire attack, no residents were found inside. RA-72 made arrival within eight minutes of the initial dispatch call. RA-72 was tasked as the Rapid Intervention Team. Firefighters were able to fight off the flame, achieving a knockdown at 23:00 under the command of Firefighter II Wilcox.

Joint operations between LSFD and LSSD provided a safe working area for the firefighters in the hustle and bustle of Little Seoul. LSSD provided traffic control. No injuries were called in the situation and firefighters managed to contain the fire within the apartment complex only having roof damage to two apartments on the third floor in the complex. Overhaul operations were underway immediately after knockdown with an active investigation.
