Two firefighters suffered minor back injuries today while battling a stubborn and spectacular blaze that burned through the roof of a house in South Gate, authorities said.
Firefighters sent to 3070 Santa Ana St. about 5:30 a.m. extinguished the flames in an hour and 45 minutes, said Los Angeles County fire Inspector Matt Levesque. Some firefighters remained on the scene to douse hot spots.
No residents were injured in the blaze, according to fire officials.
Investigators were seeking the cause of the fire, which apparently started in the attic of the two-story residence, Levesque said.
