From Fox News: A new lawsuit is alleging that a local utility company is at fault for sparking the deadly Eaton Fire around Los Angeles after surveillance video shows what lawyers say may have started the fire.
“We believe this video shows arcing on an SCE (Southern California Edison) electrical tower and a fire blazing up immediately below those sparks,” Edelson PC founder Jay Edelson shared with Fox News Digital.
“Along with other evidence we have obtained, we believe that the video is compelling evidence that SCE’s faulty equipment and poor decision-making caused the Eaton Fire.”
Attorneys for the law firm allege that the video, which was edited to point out the blaze, shows sparks igniting and falling onto the dry hillside.
The Eaton fire destroyed over 14,000 acres and 9,418 structures, and killed 17 people.
The Edelson PC law firm posted the video on social media and wrote, “We’ve obtained video that indicates the Eaton Fire in Los Angeles started after an apparent arc on SoCal Edison lines. We’re back in Court for a hearing tomorrow fighting to make sure that SoCal Edison keeps all the evidence that we will put before a jury in this case. ”
