A 50-year-old man who was trapped inside a burning Hyde Park house Saturday was hospitalized in critical condition and a firefighter suffered minor injuries putting out the blaze.
The fire was reported at 6:55 p.m. Saturday at 7032 S. Fourth Ave., according to Los Angeles Fire Department spokeswoman Lyndsey Lantz.
The fire was out in 22 minutes.
“First arriving companies reported a one-story single-family dwelling with heavy fire inside two rooms,” Lantz said. “Following reports of a person trapped, firefighters rescued a single victim.”
There were no further details about the man’s identity or the nature of his injuries.
Paramedics took one firefighter to a hospital with minor burn injuries, Lantz said.
The cause of the fire was under investigation.
