Cold Storage Building Fire in Boyle Heights, CA - June 17, 2026

A massive fire involving solar panels erupted Wednesday afternoon on a commercial building in the Boyle Heights area of Los Angeles, sending a black column of smoke into the air visible for miles.

On Thursday, there are widespread concerns about air quality in the Los Angeles area. The roof of the warehouse was still smoldering, and the building hasn't been safe for firefighters to get inside - in part because of harmful smoke.

The inferno began shortly before 2:30 p.m. Wednesday at a cold storage facility in the 1400 block of South Los Palos Street. A shelter-in-place order was issued for the immediate area surrounding the building.

At least four water-dropping helicopters responded to the scene to help put out the blaze. The Los Angeles Police Department was on tactical alert due to this fire and later went on a modified tactical alert as firefighters got the upperhand.

No injuries were reported. The cause of the fire remains unknown.
