An electrical fire at Warner Bros. left a cloud of smoke billowing over the Burbank lot, but luckily firefighters were able to quickly contain the blaze. There were no injuries, according to an individual familiar with the incident.
The fire was first reported by the Citizen app, which had video of the smoke, as well as a caption that said, “Firefighters report a burning transformer and are working to contain the blaze.” The post also said that “Firefighters report that a power outage has occurred after an explosive sound.”
It appears to have been caused by a power transformer that busted, according to the source, and there is no evidence that it was the result of arson or foul play. The fire department on the Warners lot got the fire under control. The Burbank Fire Department soon arrived, but the blaze had largely gone out when they arrived. The Burbank lot experienced at least a partial power outage.
It’s unclear how much damage was sustained, but it appears to have been minimal and contained to the building on the lot where the fire started.
Twitter users near the scene posted pictures of the blaze to social media.
