A witness, Mitch Jackson, told a KTLA-TV Channel 5 reporter that he saw someone who may have been responsible for setting the blaze.

“As I got to this corner, I heard glass breaking. I looked over and a guy was throwing something through the windows, and then the place just went up in flames,” Jackson said. “It just went up so fast.“

At least two firefighters have received minor injuries while fighting the blaze.

No other injuries have been reported.
